Just a wee bit of common sense in the heat, please!
Just came home from my son’s baseball tournament, and I was appalled at the number of people who brought their dogs. It’s 88 degrees outside with a heat index of 99. We were trying to keep the kids under umbrellas when they were off the field, and pumping them with water at every chance.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
