well here in indianapolis we are suppose to have 90 degree weather again next 3 days. my only complaint is rabbit season opens in 11 days and i have not been able to get the dogs in shape yet. i dont like to run them in the heat do to having my male get very sick from the heat a few years ago. he could not get cooled down even with water and a/c, he got sick vomitting then dehydrated. then spent 3 days at the vet. so ya i'm nervous to running in the heat.

Know what you mean.I've been running mine early in the morning ,but it really hasn't been too bad.Today I started a little later and it was humid as heck.Dogs jumped right off the bat and ran pretty hard for about and hour,then had a big check.Went ahead and caught them and man they were hot.Figured I'd better just put um up and head home.I think that the high humidity is worse on them than anything.
