I would be very cautious w/any pup in hot weather...After recently taking several first aid/cpr classes, I watch my little ones very carefully, when it's hot...I don't let them run and play, outside, 'till it gets cooler, in the evening, (after 7 p.m. or so) and even then, if they started running around like mad, I stop them, after a few minutes, and take them to the water bowl...They usually have a drink, and stop for a few...Sometimes, we really have to "parent" these little guys, 'cause they might get carried away and forget how over-heated they are...
