Missy always has a 7am and a 10pm half hour walk every day. In the heat we've got here - 30 today - I cut out the two other walks we have in the daytime.
I'm lucky Missy wants to be near me, so if I'm indoors, she'll stay indoors, even though she could go into the garden through her dog flap.

I walk Sasha early in the morning before I go to work and late in the evening. We haven't changed her feeding times.

Where we work all through the week we like to have Sasha with us wherever we go at the weekends (morning, noon or night) even when it's hot, so I might be classed as one of those numpties who drag their dogs out during the day . . . !!!! but we always take plenty of water and make sure where possible she is in a nice shady spot.

I take Loki out early morning and in the evening about 5 walks when it cools down!

She doesn't get out onto the veranda either and I watch when I play with her indoors with her ball, as she does get so hot!

I don't change mine as I am lucky to live right next to woodland with a river so they play alot in the river and the woods is cooler.
I do take them on the moor at about 6am before it gets to hot. They get two walks aday once on the moor the other along the river.

I take Tilly around 8am and again around 5pm - but later if it's hot (after dinner around 7 or 8pm.

Always makes me wonder in Spain where we see loads of little dogs being paraded along the prom when it's roasting!

It's a different kind of heat in Spain though, it's dry, not this oppressive, exhaust fume ridden, muggy heat that we have here, at least you can breathe in it and walk in it, this is so different, don't quite know why, but then maybe it's getting to me now!!!

No thanks! I could be a possibility by the end of this week though for us!!! I'm dreading it!

I've got a 7 1/2 month old puppy here who's lying in her bed sleeping when she should be out running, but I just can't risk it, coz even though I know of some lovely woods, the car is stinking hot sitting out on the driveway to get her there! She can't understand why she can't even go out in her lovely garden, she's confined to the decking out the back with her pool under the blind There are times when I wished I lived up in Scotland ya know!
