What are you guys doing now that it’s hot?

Advice

I’ve been having a harder time exercising my pup. I’ve been trying to focus on more mental stimulation, but I’ve gotten extremely busy with my summer job and rely on walks. This heat has been CRAZY. My dog legitimately lays on the ground in some shade after about twenty minutes and just pants. I try to keep him hydrated and out of the heat, but I he is not getting as much exercise anymore. My deep chested dog owner friends know about the water rule as well, so water during activity is out of the question.

What are you guys doing for your dogs that combats this heat and still keeps your baby exercised?
