Dogs dealing with hot weather 6/23/2020

It has been very hot recently. This afternoon, I felt dizzy. I needed to take a three-hours nap to recover myself.

While we were walking in the evening, we found one lost item at the side of the street. It was a small bootie. At first I thought it belonged to a baby, but my husband thought it belonged to a dog.

He was right. When we got close to our house, our neighbor with two dogs asked us if we had seen one of her dogs’ little bootie. We happily answered to her we saw it. We promised her that we would bring it back to her on our second lap.

When I picked the little bootie up and took a close look, I was amazed how well it was made. It was just like a human’s shoe with a sturdy sole. In our area where it gets extremely hot during summer, dogs definitely need their sturdy shoes to walk on asphalted roads.
