Hot Dog, It's Hot!

We have been panting up a storm over here in this heat.

Even when I let the pups out to go outside to the bathroom, they go do their thing and are back at the door wanting in within no time, it is so hot. But with the heat, also comes as summer fun. And for the doggies that is running around the yard chasing golf balls. They absolutely love, love, love this.

Of course it helps when you have the future Tiger Woods [minus all the women ;) ] hitting balls to you. Only thing is I doubt that the real Tiger melts down whenever the dogs don't give back the golf balls. But in this heat, it isn't very soon before even Brutus, the fearless, never resting dog has to sit down and cool off.

At that point, you know it is really time to cool off! Time for Oscar's favorite thing! Swimming!!

Oscar adores swimming. He will stay in the water all day if you let him. Just have a few balls that you can throw in the water to let him chase and he is happy as a clam. This year was the babies first time in the water. I was a little nervous at first if they would like it, but it turns out that they LOVE it as well!

JR didn't want Oscar too far from him and for a while Brutus was just content to watch from the shore.

But he finally decided to give it a go and jumped in and decided that he could get used to this swimming thing.

There you have it, how these Dapper Dachshunds stay cool all summer long!
