I just really wish the pet owners would put little booties on their pooch's feet, or have them walk their dogs on the grass instead of the pavement. If it's 80° outside, the blacktop is around 125°. Forcing them to walk on a hot blacktop road is cruel.
I agree. Walk early or walk late. In the heat of the day the dog would rather be at home and cool.
As to the water bowl, every car, cart, contractor that goes by will contaminate what will very quickly become hot water.
