'Cool Border'
One can never accuse a border terrier of lacking brains.
Some years ago we took our dogs to a terriershow at a local hunt kennels. For anyone who has never shown at one of these events I would strongly recommend you try it. A lot of fun for all concerned.
On this particular occasion the day started fine and the show got under way. As the day wore on the sun got higher and the temperature rose accordingly. By mid afternoon it became apparent that the heat was getting too much for the dogs.
We decided to take refuge back at the car, and found a suitablely cool and shady spot to hitch the dogs.
To our amazement, 'Pepper' had her own method of cooling down.......or was it pure chance that she adopted the position shown in the photograph.
A water bowl is essential when visiting dog shows, but normally one drinks out of it.
Footnote: Check the weather forecast before taking your dogs to an outdoor event. Heat can kill dogs. And NEVER leave a dog in a car on a sunny day, even if the windows are open
