Shelties are not a fan of this heat wave!

[Sharon7]

I know lots of folks have it even worse than us - Margi is getting triple digits and back East folks have heat, humidity and smoke to deal with. Mine just look at me and I'm sure they're thinking "Um, we're from the Shetland Islands? Off Scotland? Where it's cold and windy a lot? WHAT'S UP WITH THIS HEAT???"

We used to have a fairly Mediterranean climate here, not too warm, not too cold. The occasional heat wave for maybe a week. Therefore, no one has A/C. Have to make do with fans.

How is everyone holding up?

Iiss a southern Sheltie so heat and humid is fine. Though now I am setting on my sheeps foot. I think Spitfires is a yankees since he is always in front of his fan

I went and bought cooling mats for Pico, sometimes he even uses them!

We’re the heat humidity smoke crew here. Temps over 100, lots of thunderstorms and so much smoke the sky is yellow and we’re told not to be outside. Not sure whether the Shelties or me hate it more. None of us are fans of summer and this is summer squared. Is it winter yet?

Still not nearly what our Canadian friends must be going through. And you’ve had the wildfires in CA Sharon. I’ll still complain but I really feel for our northern neighbors!

Strangely enough we are having a "mild" summer for us! No 110s here--(yet!) Of course the monsoon is moving out for a few days and its gonna get fugly over the weekend. This is our time to burrow into a nice air conditioned house--and only come out between the hours of 5 am and 7am!

Heat warnings here almost every day. If you can't get it done before 11 AM, you better be very careful!
