We live on a lake & during the summer we have LOTS of company. And the company likes to bring their dogs for the weekends, even tho I have said repeatedly NO DOGS. I had a cocker spaniel that was terrible about marking his territory at the sight of another dog so the whole time they are here, I'm cleaning up his messes. I finally got rid of the cocker & found out that it was their dog too. So next summer, all dogs outdoors, I don't care how hot it is. Just make sure they have water.It's bad enough my house is a total wreck after they leave but putting up with the animals I can't do. So OUTSIDE ON A LEASH
