<DIV>I pushed my trip back a week - I've got a cold and still quite a bit of organizing to do, so will leave next weekend. Anyway, the houndies' grandparents (who they will meet for the first time in about 2 weeks!) have been keeping me posted on the weather. It is 105+ degrees. My parents have a postage stamp yard with cement, rocks, and the occasional shrub - no grass. Since walks will be limited because of the heat, and there isn't a way to run in the yard, even at night, what do you desert houndies do for exercise? Is there a daycare that is air conditioned and not too expensive that Kahuna and Zuma can attend even once a week, or indoor dog park, or ??? We haven't been walking a heck of lot here either but they do run in the yard and play outside.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Also open to setting up play dates and meeting other houndies in the area!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It's been cool and rainy here, but drool is being sent to all in need!</DIV>
