Sam's favorite spot is at the front door.

Bonnie worked all summer. She's had some sunburn because nothing can keep her indoors.

A fly on the door frame...

She always has time for Frisbee or to amuse herself.

Darlin' is loving her new home and yard...

She learned a new line dance...

Chloe got a summer haircut. She's 6 years old now, this was her second summer getting cut. Alabama is awful hot for a dog with such a thick coat. It seemed to build her self confidence, but she had to fight off her nasty roommates. They kept mounting her that first week. Everyone wanted a piece of the new Chloe!

It's called the fox cut. Foxy Baby!


She still sleeps in her favorite spot. She and Sam both have a favorite vent.

Toby always finds a spot of shade or a lawn chair.


I can't blame him, that concrete gets hot!

This post was inspired by a poem I remembered from my childhood.
Sunning
Old Dog lay in the summer sun,
Much too lazy to rise and run.
He flapped an ear at a buzzing fly.
He winked a half opened sleepy eye.
He scratched himself on an itching spot,
As he dozed on the porch where the sun was hot.
He whimpered a bit from force of habit,
While he lazily dreamed of chasing a rabbit.
But old dog happily lay in the sun,
Much too lazy to rise and run.
— James S. Tippett
I hope your dogs are having a good summer.
