Hi all Smile
Hope your all out enjoying the gorgeous weather! Smile

I took Lolly out for a quick walk this morning 11.30am and threw the frisbee a few times and she was panting like she was knackered but she doesnt usually get that tired that quick.
Is the panting just cause she was warm??

We were only out for 15mins!

Sounds like she was just warm.Cairo is the same in this weather,she plays outside for 10 minutes,then its back in for a drink and she lies down on the floor.Bully breeds seem to suffer more with heat problems unfortunatly.Although it doesnt stop them running about like lunatics lol

In this heat mine only last 20 minutes chasing a ball instead of the usual 45 mins and they are comatose now after their hours walk along the river, didn't even twitch at the sound of crisps being opened.

she was hot thats all. bet she had a reall good drink when you got home. you can get a water bottle with a bowl on to take out with you and then they can have a drink while your out and then maybe another run for a little bit. i put ice cubes in the water for ours it keeps it cool longer.

this one isnt like ours but it gives you an idea. one of these every where you go in the hot weather but dont forget your own drink either you need one too
