SOMEONE'S HAD A HAIRCUT!

.....and it's not me!



Believe me, it was long overdue! DH keeps assuring me that animals don't feel the heat...but how the heck does HE know....she looked pretty hot to me! In saying that, poor Boo doesn't seem any more comfortable now...she has taken to spending most days under my bed, on the tiled floor! She appears out in the early evening and finds some shade in the garden (and drinks the water from the pool!), patiently waiting for someone to take her for a walk when the heat has dissipated somewhat...it's a dog's life indeed!

I couldn't resist the pull of my NEW PAPERS any longer, and made this 'Boo' page

I don't know if it's the very bright natural light here at the moment, but my LO pics just don't seem to  be as sharp as usual :(




It fits the criteria for the second Bonus Challenge over at CAMP FRIENDZY, which was to use multiple smaller sized pics.

Hope you're all having a good week!

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx

  14. Even if it doesn't make them cooler (I can't imagine that it wouldn't) it makes us feel better about them. Cute layout :)

  22. Lovely layout - great colours! Poor Boo!! I think animals definitely feel the climate changes - why wouldn't they?!

  23. A dog's life indeed - well she most definitely looks cool. Funny - we were just talking the other day about what our dog used to do to stay cool and lying on tile floors pretty well headed the list. Love the page.

  24. Is Boo traumatized by grooming? He certainly looks spiffy and I bet he feels better too.

    We have a Maine Coon cat who has lots of long, thick, straight fur--I can only imagine how hot it is! Anyway, we've had him groomed a few times to approximate a short-haired cat (though the groomer got a bit carried away during one trimming so that Slider came home looking more like the velveteen rabbit than himself) but we haven't done it recently because it doesn't seem natural somehow to groom a cat. I do feel for him though during our hot summertime weather!
