Cool Hot Dogs

We've had a taste of late summer weather here lately -- 80 degrees and full of sunshine.  Truman likes to cool off in his wading pool, but Chloe was not quite so keen.  When I introduced her to it, she just stood there for a few seconds looking confused, and then made a quick escape.
