My wife went over to ask the guy if he realized his dog was probably burning his feet. The man basically told her to mind her own business. As he walked away, the dog kept trying to lay down. There were other dogs there also, but this one was obviously in distress. Why can't these so-called animal lovers understand their animals better. If the human can't walk on the surface without foot protection due to the hot surface, why the hell do they subject their beloved animals to this torture?? I'm hoping someone can see themselves in this rant and become a little more aware.

thanks for posting. who thinks of burnt puppy paws? it's so foreign an idea when you never heard of pups with blistered feeties. pix on the news of pups in the Arizona heatwave alerted me.. all of the dogs are wearing foot covers.
keep up the good work..
