Alex, Derek simply observed, quite correctly, that this list is not the place 
to discuss guide dog issues. I found your comment rather uncalled for in the 
circumstances. After all, the poster was aware it was off topic for this list.

  Having just spoke to a UK guide dog trainer, the policy is that you don't
  take your dog out in adverse weather that's when it is hot or cold I.E when
  the pavements have been gritted as this can get inbetween toes on paws and
  hot weather can cause blisters. Common sence I think.

  I don't know about in the UK, but the general rule in Australia is that if
  it is over 35-37 Degrees[C], you don't take the dog, and rather go back to
  the good ol' cane.

  Hello list, 

  I have a number of dog lovers in my list of Facebook friends and
  there has been a lot of comment about being careful not to make dogs walk on
  tarmac footpaths which may be melting in the hot weather. 

  I'm not a guide dog user myself but I'm curious about how those of
  you with dogs avoid this problem.  Clearly you still need to get out and
  about but can't easily tell whether patches of tarmac are melted and
  presenting a hazard to the dog's feet.
