Hi all GSD lovers. The weather channel reports current temp of 85 degrees
for our location. Love the breeze!! Went shopping before it got HOT .

100 degrees by 5PM.

Hey Kathy, Great Information. Thank you for posting.

Also remember, hot side walks, hot parking lots, and hot sandy beaches will
burn the pads of your dogs feet. Keep a spray bottle with water in your
vehicle and at home to spray the pads. The pads act as little air
conditioners.
