Was driving through town earlier and saw a man walking his two dogs - one a JR and the other a husky. It was really hot, really muggy and deeply unpleasant and the poor dogs, especially the husky looked as if they were struggling.
I am well known to prefer dogs to most humans and have 3 myself (and contemplating a 4th). Mine are a lab, retriever and a collie and they struggle enough this weather - so we don't walk them during the day, only early in the morning or rather more likely tbh late at night when it is cooler. During the day, all they want to do is sit in the shade and pant pathetically, interspersed with a bit of activity when they remember that they have two DC to look after

I know that I'm probably in the minority, but I do think that it is not really right that huskies, malamuts and other dogs that are bred for a colder environment are such popular choices of dogs in the UK - a country well known for its muggy weather. DH is Swedish and he grew up with dogs like this and thinks it's odd. We both adore these breeds, but would never consider having one because of this.
I realise that lots of people love having these breeds, and despite my own misgivings, if they are well looked after in the UK, then it's kind of ok....but walking them in the middle of a bloody hot, muggy and downright foul day is not reasonable IMO.
Rant over. I know I probably am being unreasonable and I do stand by the right for anyone to have any breed of dog - as long as they are sensible and the dog is raised properly and not treated badly.
