We have found a great dog park here in Florida, and I take Wolfgang first thing in the morning when it's still cool. He gets to play with the other pups, but then takes a lot of the day to recover from the heat. It's not like Maryland, where mornings would be high sixty or low seventy degrees - it's low to mid eighties even early.
There's a good walk in some nearby woods but I think it will be autumn before I start taking him on regular nature walks like you see in the picture above. I'm not complaining about the heat but I do think that Wolfgang will be a little more energetic once we're past summer.
Yep, he's gonna be looking for the dunk tank (AKA the #10 washtub) to cool off.
ReplyDeleteHow old is he now BP?
ReplyDeleteGlen, he's 8
ReplyDeleteIn Florida summer extends to October. Very often late October.
