THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER



We consider our dogs Wendy and Toby as our "official weather forecasters".
We have had such a hot summer this year that our dogs just kind of lay around and snooze. You don't even have to step outside to know exactly what the weather is. You can tell by watching them through the window. For some reason they do not usually find shade in their doghouses, but instead they stare at us through the window in the door and beg to come in. We know one thing..... A wet Toby is not a happy Toby. Whether it is just sprinkling, or it is pouring, he continuously taps on the door wanting in. When it gets to be cold in the winter, we sometimes let them in to warm up. They usually plop down on the rug, and take a long nap, or maybe watch tv.
We are really looking forward to cooler weather, and we know that our furry friends are also!!! Maybe we should just let them move in to the house with us... NOT!!!
