I really like it when my dad grills. He has this grill that seems to keep getting smaller. I think it is the rain. Maybe it is the really hot weather that starts to melt it, then the rain gets it wet, then it gets hot again and the grill shrinks. That is my guess, (but what do I know I am just a dog).
I mostly like the cool weather. I don’t mind if it is raining, hardly seem to notice in fact. The only things I don’t care for is A). my dad feels compelled to try to dry my feet off when we go back in. B). if it rains a lot he gets grumpy, (but what does he know he is just a human). and C). If it is really raining hard he trys to avoid walking me. I don’t mind getting wet and I have to pee reguardless if it is raining hard or not!
It is nice when the rain is refreshing and does helpful stuff like cooling things off or filling the bird bath so I can drink out of it, stuff like that. It would be really cool if it rained something better than water though. I wish it would rain treats, cookies, meat would also be nice, ( my guess it is water and that is that).
Now thunder and lightning is ok too. Some don’t care for it but it never seems to bother me. Hey I bark and the sky thunders….. to each his own.
Life Lesson: Even if it is raining outside, don’t let it rain inside.

I don’t mind the rain either. In fact I will lay outside on the deck waiting to greet momma no matter what the weather (she is sometimes grouchy when I greet her after laying in the rain – sheesh). I don’t know what is up with that grill. It does look a tad small.

Well, I splash in every puddle I can find. If a puddle is there, then it is my job to splash around in it. My Mom tries to pull me away from it but, come one, she’s no match for my intense need to destroy that liquid joy. I also have my paws dried off before I enter the house. Just to get even, I grab the towel when they are done. Need some release! Rock on brother!!!!
maybe we could have a pool party!
Yes, pool party. Hamburgers, hot dogs and lots of splashing around!!!!
Now that sounds like FUN!
It appears that you all are looking to start a union or something. That’s all we need, more union rabble rousers. Or are you thinking of joining the Muslim doghood? or is it the Muslim brotherhood? You have sooo many entitlements and now looking for more?
I know it tastes good, but don’t bite the hand that feeds you.
