This heat and humidity has been awful! This is the worst it has been since moving here! Today I believe Raleigh set a record. My friend texted me and she was in Raleigh and her car said 112 degrees! Our temperature gauge at the house said 108! I know I can't be outside in this unless I am at the pool or the beach in the ocean or lake!
I feel so bad for Jake! It makes me want to find him a spot in the house or take him for a ride in the car with the A/C on full blast! I got a pinterest inspired idea for him and we tried it out today. I forgot to take a picture. Here's what we did:
Took a gallon ice cream pail filled it with water and some toys and put it in the deep freezer yesterday and took it out for him today and he loved it. We took it out of the container and he was licking that thing for hours and sometimes it was comical watching him trying to bite at the ice to get at his toys. It cooled him off.
The poor puppy won't get in his little pool we bought him, he doesn't really like the water yet. When he figures it out, we probably won't be able to get him out.
He just finds some shade or goes and finds a cool place in the garage to lay. It takes its toll on humans and animals! I think this is worse than the winter cold. We can get him warm with blankets etc, but hard to cool off a puppy who doesn't like to get wet!
