Probably a good thing you did! OMG...I know people are stupid, but how could you forget you brought your Yorkie 'drag racing' with you!!!
I do not allow my (small) babies to walk on pavement, hot or otherwise...never on a street or parking lot, rarely on a sidewalk, and only very occasionally do they set foot on 'other people's grass'...lol. Mine 'expect to' and get 'carried' to and from everywhere. I'm weird...I know!
