Why Does Everyone Love the Summer So Much?

I know I’m biased but the more I think about it, the more I think people don’t realize how much they dislike the summer.

Here’s some reasons we all probably don’t like the summer as much as we think:

  • Sweating
  • Mosquitoes
  • Other bugs
  • Sun block
  • Sunburns
  • Beach sand (gets everywhere, burns your feet)
  • Hot cars
  • Crowded places
  • Sitting on hot objects
  • Air conditioning that’s too cold, outsides that are too hot

I feel like the planet is saying, “Hey, you stupid humans! Go indoors or die!” Yet, still, we go nuts for it every year.

T-7 months. 🙂

Macy Runs with the Big(ger) Dogs

Macy had so much energy in doggy daycare that they had to move her to the Medium Dog room so their longer legs could keep up with her. 😊🐕

She did great and made a lot of new friends. Sounds like she’ll be visiting them more often!

Look how happy she is!

Dog Training: Charlie

Charlie didn’t seem like the sharpest tool in the shed initially.

It seemed like he never met a doorway or stationary object that he didn’t bop his head into.

Now look at him rocking sit, down, and sit from a down with just a few brief lessons on each.

Never judge a book by its cover, right? Charlie’s proof of that!

Awesome job, Charlie 🐕!

Taking Spike to Puppy Training

I got a special assignment from my local Humane Society to take Spike to his puppy training class. Spike showed a few behavioral concerns early on so he’s getting some special training to work on them.

Today was his first day hanging out with me and going to class. He did pretty good!

In fact, the lessons were too easy for him. Despite that, he (I mean, we) have some work to do on his stress reactions to unfamiliar people and sounds.

He’ll get there. Good job today, Spike! 🐕 👍🏻


Getting some energy out before class

 


Looking accomplished after class.

 


Getting a little sleepy.

 


And we’re out! 🙂

See you next Saturday for more training, Spike!
