How awful. I feel so sorry for them. I hope they are not being too hard on themselves. Thanks for the warning. It has been extremely hot here in GA as well. Welcome aboard.

| Thanks so much for the warning. I keep one of those water dishes that keeps itself filled outside. Reuger is so short that I'm not sure that he can reach the water bowl that the big dogs use. And Welcome to Yorkie Talk. This is a very fun and informative place to be!!! (and we love to see pictures of your little one!!)

| Hi Carol...Hi Gracie!!! Welcome to YT... I am a newbie too, just over a week or so now... Everyone has been SO great.. You will just LUV it!!! I know I have as I joined just prior to my Jazzy requiring surgery for LP in her back leg. I have really appreciated the advise and encouragement... I live in Florida and it gets really hot here too, so I always keep an eye on Jazz when she is out in the hot sun.... Thanks for the reminder, I am sorry for the loss that that family is going thru currently... Have a great day!! Chel |
