Thank goodness the sweltering temps have finally eased up and given way to days that vary between the warm 80s and very early fall-like coolness and breezes. The cool fall days are really weird for August, but I’m not complaining!
Daisy’s much happier now too. But here’s what she enjoyed doing most during the heat wave:
Watermelon and ice cubes were Daisy’s faithful companions this summer – what did you do to cool off?
We had a kiddie pool for our mastiffs. Our current (small) dogs nap on the air conditioning vents.
LOL Smart pups! We haven’t tried Daisy in a kiddie pool yet, though we’d love to. But I think she might relate it to a bath, which she’s not all too fond of!
We came to Wyoming for the summer. Much cooler here. And playing in the river too.
Oooo that sounds SO refreshing!
You really eat melons, Daisy? I like ice cubes too, they are really cool toys :o)
Just watermelons, my family won’t give me any other types of melon. I eat it right down to the rind!
That watermelon looks so yummy! Wooooowooooooo, Ku
It was!
Wow, how cool is that!
My dogs don’t like watermelon but cats love it… but hey they will eat everything
Watermelon is one of Daisy’s favorite summertime treats. At least she eats that on a towel – she carries ice cubes around with her, and we have to sop up the drips! LOL
Sweet Daisy you are sure making that watermelon look good and we can almost hear you slurping that good stuff. Hugs and nose kisses
LOL Mommy said I make cute watermelon-eating sounds! ๐
We love watermelon and ice at our house too, along with blueberries and frozen peanut butter treats! Our sweltering temps went away at the beginning of the month but now they’re back, ugh!
We’re getting the same thing now, I’m on my official countdown to fall. ๐
Oh Daisy Nom Nom that looks a wonderful treat ๐ Glad it has cooled down xx0xx

What an elegantly laid table – I mean, floor! Could you make a video about this event, please? I’d like to hear how Daisy recites Misaki’s immortal (bad) poem: http://themisadventuresofmisaki.wordpress.com/2013/08/17/bad-poetry-day-contest/
Hahaha! A slurpy video! ๐
LOL that watermelon is bigger than Daisy!
Haha Yes it was! ๐
That’s a perfect choice for a summer treat – watermelon is one of my favorites too!
And there are so many interesting varieties to choose from – watermelons have become fun!
Oh yes I love ice too, but I haven’t tried water melon, I’m gonna tell my Mum that you have it and I should give it a try too! ๐
Have fun and stay cool,
Your pal Snoopy ๐
We found out how good watermelon is for hydrating dogs in summer from a breeder we met at a county fair. Our vet confirmed it. ๐
nom nom, look at that yummy melon:-)
I didn’t know dogs like watermelon!
You look like are enjoying it so much, daisy ๐
I did! Yes, most dogs love watermelon. It’s great because it helps to hydrate them during the summer heat.
It’s too sweet for us. We can eat it but not that many
I can understand that, even my friends who are on low sugar diets can’t eat these sweet watermelons.
We also have low ration of carrot for the same reason
That watermelon looks delicious. I am craving some right now!
I always crave watermelon!
