So this is our first real summer here on the east coast (or I guess we are considered mid-atlantic?) and its already in the upper 90s with high humidity. Charlotte is a girl after my own heart and HATES the heat. When we take her out for her potty breaks she will go quickly, then lay down in the grass and will not move for anything. Within 5 or so mins out there she is panting with her tongue hanging down to her giant paws. She looks miserable. When we do get her back inside she will sit at the window and stare off like she doesn't understand why she is stuck in doors all the time. She is used to being a very active pup with lots of adventures and outings. I don't think she likes being at home all the time, but I don't know how to take her out in that weather safely.
We've been taking water and trying to go only in the mornings or late evenings but it doesn't seem like enough activity for her. Are we doomed to a summer of sitting on the couch? Any ideas out there for us?
