Pet Peeve #3

I think it is wonderful that you take your dog for a walk or to run along side you while you jog or ride your bike… However… it is HOT… the asphalt is HOT… the pavement is HOT…

If you wouldn’t dare walk barefoot… then how does your dog feel?

Where’s the water bottle for the dog, or a cool wet bandana?

Pet Peeve #2

It’s 100+ degrees out and you left your dog in the car. What were you thinking? “I forgot” is just not good enough! Your dog has died of a heat stroke and because of your “forgetfulness”. Next time… no let there not ever be a next time… just don’t get a dog! And another thought I hope you never leave your children in a hot car either.
