Dog in Grass

I take Dale-chan for a walk every morning for about 30 minutes or longer so that she can have a chance to relieve herself and to burn up some energy before I leave home for work. During summer, I need to be extra careful to take her out earlier in the morning so that she doesn't burn her paws on the hot asphalt.

From what I understand, border collies were originally bred to herd sheep in the the much cooler climate of the border region between England and Scotland. This breed of dog was never expected to be a pet in a the hot, humid, tropical climate of a Japanese summer.
