Hide and seek
It’s hot. Sizzling hot.
And when you have golden fur, it’s worth trying anything to get away from the heat.
All you have to do is go under the jasmine bush,
Dig a very very deep hole (and hope that your human doesn’t get too angry about it) -
And then enjoy the coolness!

How sweet and adorable. Hope it cools off for you as well. We’re only in the 90s today, yesterday it was 104.

awww. Can he go for a swim? Maybe he could have a small swimming pool.
July 10, 2010 at 20:36
He swims all the time as we live next to a lake… but sometimes he likes to lie in his hole and watch the world go by, unseen by passers-by.
July 10, 2010 at 20:43
Aww, sweet
Poor thing can’t take his coat off.
July 10, 2010 at 20:44
LadyFi: Great idea, stay in the cool shade.
July 10, 2010 at 20:48
Up periscope.. Where are the humans?
Ooops, here they come – dive, dive, dive!
July 10, 2010 at 21:28
What a sweetheart
July 10, 2010 at 21:47
Smart dog. He has that staying cool thing all figured out.
July 10, 2010 at 22:22
He is relaxing!
July 10, 2010 at 22:32
Great shots, he seems to be dozing off hehehe..
July 10, 2010 at 22:32
He’s so sweet. Or she. Love the contentment on his or her face.
July 11, 2010 at 01:03
Looks like a wise dog. My Harry on the other hand loves sunbaking.
July 11, 2010 at 01:16
he does look a bit exhausted by the heat
yet he maintains his sweetness
I think I need a cool spot as well
July 11, 2010 at 01:27
He looks happy and cool!
July 11, 2010 at 01:32
He looks so lovable. And who could be angry with him even if he did dig a deep hole…I couldn’t, that’s for sure! I love pictures like these…they’re irreplaceable and make for very fond memories.
July 11, 2010 at 02:35
I just laughed when I saw what he had done. We’ve left the hole so that he can hide in there whenever he feels like it!
July 11, 2010 at 06:37
Awww look at that face, how can a human get angry with that sweet face?
July 11, 2010 at 03:30
Its amazing to come to your blog and see the diversity of your weather. And I agree what a gorgeous sweet face he has. He looks relaxed and happy!
July 11, 2010 at 08:22
wow, these are photos to treasure.
July 11, 2010 at 12:11
so adorable!
July 11, 2010 at 12:50
I bet he misses winter
July 11, 2010 at 12:50
He looks so relaxed, bless him! It might even do the jasmine good . . .

Clever dog. Here we have the birds who enjoy the bath I have put out.
July 11, 2010 at 16:35
Awwww, that is so cute!! I love the bit about ‘hope the human doesn’t get too upset’ *sniggers*

Hmm. I need one of those!
July 11, 2010 at 18:25
That white muzzle always tugs at my heart. What a smart guy he is!
July 11, 2010 at 19:23
Oh, he looks so content and happy.
July 11, 2010 at 19:27
Awww…he buried himself in a nice cool little hole.
July 11, 2010 at 23:09
He is one smart dog and a very handsome boy.
July 11, 2010 at 23:13
Poor Oscar..have the Anklebiters bring him some ice cubes in his drinking water..he does look comfy in his hole:)
July 12, 2010 at 04:13
I love golden retrievers – is it yours? So lovely.
July 12, 2010 at 12:36
Yes, this is Oscar, my working golden retriever.
July 12, 2010 at 13:11
Sounds like a winner. Our yellow dog is hiding from the heat by jumping in the little kids’ swimming pool that is like ankle deep on an adult.
July 12, 2010 at 13:18
IF it stays hot in DK, I may be digging my own “Oscar sized hole”!!
July 13, 2010 at 07:55
I love dogs.
I love how you share his life like this.
They are invaluable to living I think.
