[nagdu] Keeping doggie cool in the summer?

[Raven Tolliver]

only work outside when you have to.
Take any leisure walks in the early morning.
Offer ice or ice water during water breaks. The Golden Guy loves ice
cubes like their toys or raw meat, so we make a big game of bobbing
for ice cubes.
Also, I rub peppermint essential oil down the Golden Guy's spine from
the base of his neck to the base of his tail, and into the long fur on
his tummy to keep him cool.
