Mine don't care they just want to lie down. They've got paddling pool but the are just sleeping and keeping still. They feel moving is silly and excessive

Mine have been mostly sleeping too. The temperature has fallen now to a bearable 21 °C (from a high of 29.1 °C at lunchtime). With luck, OH will have a game of Hoze with them when he gets in.

Mine both love a game of 'fish
The fish were made for cats with catnip. I have 12 and put the dogs in the hall while I hide them round the house. Both get a treat when one brings me a fish. I make the hiding places harder the second time around.
I keep the fish in a cake tin with a sachet of catnip to keep their smell.
These are the fish.

I guess it depends on your dog and your house whether keeping them busy is good idea.

Reuben has just slept his days away, much too warm to take him anywhere, even early morning . I was up with him at 1a.m. cooling him down with a cold flannel as he was panting heavily , he just doesnt do heat at all xx
Rory's really struggling it's been 37° again here today and I've been sitting with him a lot. He's been sitting in his paddling pool. I've been taking the youngsters out at 4am and it's still been 20°Our neighbours house caught fire last so I didn't get much sleep. She's ok and in hospital at the moment.
Tuppy’s been sleeping most of the time too. When I open the door to let her into the garden she just looks at me reproachfully, then goes to stand by the treat cupboard instead of going outside! Needless to say, she gets her treat! She seems to prefer to lie in the hall, rather than in the cooler room with the aircon.
Needless to say, we’ve been told to save water and our hose pipe ban comes i to force next week…

- we're lucky, only 2 days ago Manx Utilities reported : " Isle of Man's main reservoir levels recorded at 100%. Manx Utilities hopes to avoid water restrictions this summer". - Coco is happy. Gosh that's awful.
