Beat The Heat... Doggy Style

It's hot. Even the air is sweaty. Walking outside is like strolling underwater. Slow motion. Oppressive and difficult. I can only imagine how hot it would be were I to don a black fur coat and attempt to trot down the street. So Max stayed indoors yesterday. Here is an account of his day:

What a great dog! Glad to see he is well loved.

Awwwww. Love the slo-mo slobber in the first photo. We have a super-sized brown Lab. He spent yesterday lying between two fans in the living room and staring at me accusingly. I think he actually gave me the finger when I left for work, like "you're going someplace air conditioned, aren't you, bitch?"

That's not much different from my day, yesterday.

Jeezus.

[Purr Meow]

Joe, were you slobbering like that as well?!

[Jen]

Please tell me you have an air conditioner!!!!!

[Ann]

Gee, Purr Meow....I was more concerned that Joe was airing out his balls in front of the fan!

We do have an AC... The model Max is laying in front of is just a bonus addition that circulates the already cold air. I think Max just likes to feel the breeze on his goodtimes.

We've got supreme cooling and ventilation down to a science round these parts..

Max is adorable! I much prefer big dogs to little rat dogs. If I had the space, I'd own a lab or a golden retriever in a second!

i love it! that made my whole day. i too have a black lab (hugo) and he is going through the same motions here in austin where it is currently 103...kill me now.

Poor Max!!! My persian cat is also trying to survive the heat so I've learned a lot something about different poses that give relief lately. Her fur coat is not black but her hair is 12 centimeters long so I guess she's not too happy - especially today because they say on TV that today's European heat is comparable with Australian temperatures - whatever it means. It's 36 degrees Celsius here where I live. In the coolest place. Help!

You know I'm an overprotective parent when I look at the first picture and all I can think is, "OH MY GOD! His tongue is waaaaay too close to that fan! Get away from there!"

Max had the perfect day! I'm jealous
