I am completely exhausted from my walk with my mom and my buddy Ben tonight. We just got back about an hour ago. Walking in nice weather really and truly makes me happy. I am relaxed and I don’t have a care in the world when I get the right amount of exercise. During the summer though, it is important for me to exercise at the right time. My fellow dogs and I don’t operate at 100% when it is too hot out. As much as I love walking, I prefer to stay inside with the cool A/C. Going out early in the morning or late in the evening is the best time. My mom and I both get to enjoy it that way. My mom is fair-skinned and doesn’t like to be in the sun too long. She burns like crazy and I feel like I am overheated. No one wins.

Nighty night
So remember this advice from your old pal Winston. We may act like you are taking us to Disneyland when you grab that leash, but you are doing no one a favor when it is hotter than blue blazes outside. We’ll start out on the walk with both guns blazin’, but you might have to peel us off the sidewalk about halfway. Oh, did I mention sidewalks? They don’t exactly tickle our toes when it is hot out. It gets a little uncomfy after a while.
Ok, I must take leave now. My bed is calling my name. I can almost hear myself snoring already. Take care of yourselves.
Your old pal,
Winston








Go Winston! Your wheels look awesome – I can’t wait to see you and Ben sometime this summer when my mom and dad come to visit you and your family.
