Hot Dog, Cold Air

There are some significant problems when you are a dog bred to live and work in the snow, but are forced to endure a warmer summer. Observe:


Here is Chewie sleeping. Cute isn't it? Notice the piece of plastic next to him? That's the air deflector for the air conditioning vent. He has pushed it aside because he didn't want it on the vent. So, where is the vent? Right underneath him, of course. When he comes in from outside, Chewie prefers to lie in several cool places: on the tile by the front door, up against the cool metal front door or directly on the air conditioning vent. He even recognizes the sound of the A/C starting and runs to throw himself onto a vent when he hears it. If he has his way, the next time we move, it will be to Greenland.

So if any of you out there are thinking of adopting a sled breed of any sort, be warned. They hog all the cold air.

Until later...
