Spike is funny in the hot weather. If I take him out for a walk, and he thinks it's too hot, he will just find the closest shady patch of grass, lay down, and refuse to move. It's quite hot here right now, so I try and take him out later in the evening (about 8:30 or so), when it's still light out but much cooler. Fortunately, living in Edmonton, it's stays light until about 10 p.m. this time of year!
I also have the option of taking him round to my parent's house - their living room is in the basement, so it's much cooler, and quite big, so we can play games. Also, I might take him to a local pet store that is air conditioned, so at least he gets a bit of a walk up and down the aisles! |
