Sparky went to the groomer this morning. He was there about 5 hours. I was beginning to worry. It was the first time I left him at a groomer but it's been so hot, I wanted to get him clipped short. I cut him with the scissors but he doesn't sit still and I don't have the equipment that groomers have. He looks like a different dog. I asked them not to cut his tail or ears. The ears are fine but the tail looks like a rat tail. They said he didn't like his face touched. I said he didn't like his feet touched either but she said he didn't mind his feet, just his face. I can probably let it get in until next summer and just get his feet and face trimmed up.
It was extremely hot; 110 on the west side and 103 on the east side were the highs for the day. The air conditioner couldn't keep up with it. It ran all day and only cooled down to 86 in here. I set the thermometer to 75 thinking I could get it nice and cool before the Power Company shut it off. They didn't shut it off today and it didn't get cooled down in here. I put on the overhead fans and I had the window fan sitting on the livingroom floor. I put a bowl of ice in front of it but Sparky wouldn't leave it alone. He likes ice cubes and kept taking them out of the bowl. It would have worked fine but he would have had melted ice cubes all over the place. I didn't do much in this heat. I read my book and that was about it.
