Well, I guess that computers can be โ€œglitchyโ€ things sometimes. I canโ€™t find my recent pupdates here. No problem – I will just have to catch you up on my whole summer. First of all, it has been verrry hot here this summer. We donโ€™t have air conditioning at my house, so I had to learn to make friends with electric fans. At first, I was a bit reluctant, but soon you could find me directly in front enjoying the breeze.ย 

I went on lots of very early morning walks, hikes, and swims this summer to beat the heat of the day. I also went camping a couple of times. I am really good around the campsite. It is no problem for me to be tethered contently on my bed waiting for the next adventure. We visited lots of new places. I got to go swimming in a bunch of different lakes and creeks. I love swimming and am learning how to be careful around people in the water so that I donโ€™t accidentally scratch them. I was also able to show off my public skills as we visited some new towns. Here at home, I went out for dinner a few times, as well as going to the dentist and hairdresser. They say that I do very well in these places and keep talking about my โ€œpatience.โ€ย 

It was a pretty fun summer, but I really think that my shiny black coat is more suited to slightly cooler weather. I think that fall is going to be a welcome relief!
