It's too hot for me!

I hope everyone is managing to stay cool?

    My brother got some ice cubes to put in her water, she's just picking them up & crunching on them. He hasn't took her for a walk and he feels guilty,but he knows it's too hot to take her. Even when she needs to go in the garden,we make sure she doesn't stay out for long. Also today is the 1st anniversary of our previous dog's passing,due to the heat.

    The dog we have now is just over 8 months old,so she doesn't really understand why she can't go for a walk in this heat. She goes in a mood if my brother goes to the shop without her.

    Does this help or make it worse?

    Ah lovely,if only. However if it actually did snow like that (at the proper time) everyone would be complaining about that too,lol. You just can't win.

    You’ve got to feel for the pets, mine have cool mats and we keep wet bandanas in the fridge for around their necks. Our dogs love the snow though.

    Usually my computer tells me the temperature, at the moment it says "record high" haha. Too hot for me and i usually love the heat.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    I hope you get to your appointment safely today @MadCow1! 

    It's too hot for me too. I wouldn't say I'm managing to stay cool, but am coping just about okay at the moment :) Stay safe today everyone.
