07: Water Fun

Can you believe it's June already? The year is flying by. No matter, here I am with another issue of the Sunday Scoop newsletter.

Barbeque season is upon us, which means lots of sun, yummy food and good times with friends, family and dogs.

As I type this update, I'm sitting in my garden balancing my laptop on a wonky table, while inside an IKEA Kallax box to reduce the sun glare. It's working, and i'm pretty pleased.

I'll migrate to the garden for my 9 to 5 if this works well.

As the days get warmer, it's really important to keep an eye on your dog's health. While we might love the vitamin D, too much sun can be fatal for our pups.

To keep Luna hydrated and entertained I bought her a step-on dog water fountain. Needless to say at first she wasn't a big fan, running away as I showed her how it works.

An hour later... and she's drinking from the fountain like a pro. I consider this a resounding success.

That's all for this week, folks.

See you next week!
