Can't even imagine it happening to any dog I were walking, can you? What type of person walks a dog in that kind of heat for that great a distance on any hot surface as everybody knows how hot concrete, bricks, tarmac, asphalt, even boardwalks, can get after hours in the sun? Looking at that dog's paws, this tragedy just steams me. Hope Animal Control or Olaf's vet or somebody is making sure this poor dog's paws are being treated daily, given his meds for healing and pain and kept off his feet while he's getting well. I wouldn't trust this owner ever again with poor Olaf's care.
