Dog Days of Summer

It's been a long, hot, humid summer. In the 9 years we've lived here, this is definately the most miserable. We brought out the doggie pool for the pups to enjoy. Most of my Shelties are allergic to water, with the exception of Shiloh. He enjoys laying in it after a good game of ball and Daisy, being a BC, will lay in it all day if we let her. All enjoy a nice big cool drink from it. We introduced Pinch to water in the hopes he'd join Shiloh in liking it. He more than likes it, he loves the pool, the hose, and water more than any dog I've ever had. A dangerous new "trick" he's learning is taking the hose (while it's running) and running around with it, spraying all who get in his path. Clearly he loves the pandemonium of screaming and running.
All I can say is: Be careful what you wish for, 'cause you just might get it all.
