Foxes are barking at all hours at the moment..he may have been wound up by one close to the house?
Did he need the toilet? I know if Thai needs a poop and needs one now he will pant and pace and whine.

I let him out, but he just stood there and then came back in. Could definitely be foxes - we occasionally get them in the garden. I heard my neighbours arguing this morning, so perhaps they're responsible lol (it wouldn't be the first time)

Woody has a new name - $h*t dog.
He hardly ever rolls in anything but the farmer must have been our fertilising and the temptation was just too much.

He's had a wipe down but still smells! So he'll be on the lead for a few days if we go the field

Weird night with Finn - he got me up at 2am by whining and pacing. Let him out, he didn't need the toilet, but he seemed stressed. Panting, his heart was beating really fast and he looked scared stayed downstairs and eventually he settled but it took a long time. Hes very clingy this morning.
Does anyone have any idea of what that was about? It wasn't hot where he was sleeping, no noises as far as I could tell.

Archie does this when there's thunder about. He knows long before I do...........probably feels the change in pressure

@Oof Hope he's feeling better today. Sounds a bit like how Zhia was when she had a stomach bug last year.

Took Dobby out for a toilet break today (we live in a maisonette) and she decided as the weather was so good she was going to sun bathe. So she laid down in the middle of the path and refused to move! So I sat with her for 15 minutes then managed to get her in

I don't like the bought ones, they are either too high or too low. This one doesn't make him eat at an awkward angle. His head is just slightly down

Lets hope everybody looks after their dogs in the next few days (in the UK at least) and doesnt leave them in a car 'just for a couple of minutes' or take them out for a 'nice, long walk'.

My lots are already in energy saving mode and spending their time flopped out on the laminate flooring.

We've cancelled our usual group walk tomorrow so I'm going to take Whisp for an early woods walk instead.

I hate that people let their dogs suffer and die in hot cars every year. Idiots.

Penny is still coming to XC from 6:30 to 10:00 ish in the morning. It's brutal but she copes so well. She's the most heat tolerant dog I've ever owned. I do carry water for her and she's smart about resting and finding shade. It blows my mind that she's not tongue lolling panting in this heat, she pants some, but not for long.

Yesterday I discovered that Penny does the same with blackberries! Pops them right off the thorn bushes! I had some too, they're so sweet this year!

Bit early here for blackberries!
Its amazing they manage to pluck them without getting any of the plant.

My OH is getting up early, before 6am to take Dan out and also water the allotment, they are back for 8am. We've been going at 9pm for a short walk round the country park ( a very slow plod really) and this seems to be working well at the moment. Have got the large garden umbrella up and a little parasol over the raised dog bed for Dan. He's worn himself out helping me unpack the cardboard from a couple of garden chairs that were delivered earlier and is currenly snoozing behind the chair by the window, where OH is also snoozing in front of the telly

We went out at 6.30am, walked for a couple of hours in nice shaded woodland. They then had a cooling swim in the lake and are now fast asleep.

Didn't faze him at all, though he was quite competitive to get to the toy first

Cooled me down lovely

Saw a fool just now in the village centre walking 2 golden retrievers, it's too hot outside to walk a dog, especially ones with thick coats. Some people are ignorant.
