| Sunscreen for Dogs? Anybody use SPF for their dog? After Otis's little skin incident, and the summer coming up, I'm thinking about giving him ultimate SPF protection, or buying him a little parasol. |

| When you said parasol, all I could think of is a yorkiebaby with a little drink umbrella in its collar! Sorry now quite what you were looking for but had to share my visual!

| Schatzie really isn't in the sun much as she prefers the comforts of air conditioning. Now that the temps are getting pretty high we have moved our "outside" play time to later hours in the day when the sun is setting.

| I suggested that the owner of the blue baby I placed use a high SPF BABY water-resistant suscreen. I think it is safer if it is for babies.. |

| I have read that Yorkies do not tolerate extremes in temps. So, it could be normal. We don't do walks but when I go on the deck, my babies seem to tire before I do.. |
