Re: [PyrNet-L] physical activity - hot weather

["kdbooth" <kdbooth@mindspring.com>]

I have a concern along these lines.  This will be my first summer as a pyr
owner.  How well do pyrs get by in hot weather?  I know some pyr people on
here live in Texas and other "hot" states.  I'm in the mid-Atlantic area.
We've only had a couple of  really warm days so far ... not as hot as 80
though ... but my dogs already seem hot and uncomfortable, especially after
walks.  Can anyone offer some guidelines for keeping pyrs comfortable and
safe in hot weather?
