We've been in the triple digits and even the nights are warm. Even our early morning walks are uncomfortably warm (for me, anyway). Piper zips along as usual, but I shorten the length of walks and she lengthens the time she sprawls and rolls in dewy grass! We hit a little gravel road about midway home and if Piper slows to almost stopping, I ask if she'd "like a little lift?" Then I carry my girl 'til we hit shady sidewalks; I think she sorta enjoys the different perspective from four feet off the ground! And just this afternoon, while I have swamp cooler on high, fans blowing and feeling just too warm, Piper asks to go out (it's mid-90's) and plops down in full sun...When I say, "Really?" She looks at me like I'm crazy!!
