Great Idea?

Happy Friday!
For the past week it has been really hot here in upstate NY where I lives. 
 In fact the whole East Coast has been a cookin' for a LOOONG time.

OK,  so maybe not this hot but you gets the idea...
Anyhoo... a few days ago mom and dad thought that it would be a wonderful thing if they boughts me a kiddie pool, so when after I am done with my zoomies and such I could cool off in some waters.  They even threw my favorite Wubba in the pool to "entice" me to gets in it.
Hey Mom! What's that over theres...
...and what is my Wubba doing in it?
You want me to do what?
Go in theres and lie down and splash around?
Do they thinks I am nuts? 
 Does it say in the book "Boxers For Dummies" that I am going to likes being in the waters?
(I can't believe they actually had this)

Now I know that I has LOTS of wonderful unboxer furiends that LUVS to do this sort of thing,
 even my boxer buddies Sweet Lucy Lou and Lucy Mae likes to play in the waters, but my buddy Brix is not so sure about it.
I am not too sure abouts it yet either and all I have is a kiddie pool, not a big scary lake to swims in.
So for now I will cool off in a different way so you two have fun!
Puddles...where are the beers? :)

Woofs and Licks,

  3. I think you would like it if you just give it a try. Have your mom toss in some chunks of TUBE STEAK and some baby carrots. They are grrrrreat to bob for. It was 99 at my house yesterday. That is a lot more than 87. I didn't think much of that temp..

  4. I don't do pools. Hero's the only Shar Pei I ever even heard of who swims of his own free will. And Boxers and Shar Pei are not totally undrelated. We are both molasser type breeds.

  6. Maggie Mae, maybe it's just a big water bowl for you to drink from! :)

  7. I think you're right to be a little leery of the plastic bath. I think all two-leggers make that mistake. 35987 years ago mine got one for Miss Cali. She thought it was a giant water bowl and was in shock when she found out what the two-leggers REALLY wanted her to do with it! Shade and cold beers work for me!

  9. Oh Maggie Mae you should give your pool a try. But us doggies here probably wouldn't get in it either. It does look very scary. So let's just have a cold one.
    Have a cool day.

  11. Don't be spreading too many rumors abouts me Maggie Mae. I don't mind da lake but Momma bought us a pool once and Calhoun ATE it!! I don't swim too good and we aren't much for da pools. Nikki on da udder hand, she think she a otter or sumptin'. I just like to float wif Daddy and sit on the shore and watch Daddy float.

  12. Dear Maggie Mae- start out by treating it as one big water bowl. Then step in a foot at a time. In this record heat you'll learn to love it.
    I had to buy a bigger one for the kids here and STILL they never make room for me in it. So I am guessing they really like it.

  13. You might really like it though - if anything you hop in there, get wet, and then shake near the closest human!

  28. I recently posted about this topic. It's unbelievable to me that ppl would leave their dogs in the car. I printed out some brochures and leave them in my car. If I see any pets in cars I plan on leaving a flier after I call the police.

    Stopping by from the Blog Hop. I am following via Google friend.
