As temperatures continue to rise please don’t forget about your four legged friends.  If your dog normally stays outside, consider bringing him in the house during the heat of the day.  If he must stay out, make sure he has plenty of shade and fresh water.  I recommend putting at least 2 water bowls out.  Also if you walk you dogs daily (like you should) make sure you bring plenty of water and try to cut your walks short.  I also recommend training your dog inside during the heat of the day.  There are plenty of games you can play with your dog in the house that will be fun for you both.  I like to hide Jackson’s ball around the house and let him find it.  You can also practice extended “place” commands and work on distance sits and downs.  Have fun and stay cool.
