Hot Day in Georgia

It was beastly hot here today, humidity very high. Here are 3 of the 4 black puppies we have been fostering. They love the Dead Tread Mill. Look how big they are at 12 weeks, like bigger than beagles full-grown!! They go north this week to new homes. My mom will miss them. I won't!

This is Billy our foster beagle. Looks like he was injured around the eye but he is okay now.

My mom calls him a little Butterbean Beagle. He came with a collar and tag but we have not found the owners. And the rescue hunted every way they could think of...and nobody advertised that they had lost him. So he is safe now with us and we will find him a very good home.

It was so hot my mom set up some shade for us on the deck. She bought a patio umbrella but forgot to buy the base to set it up!! Haha, space cadet mom.
I think I'm ready for a snooze now. I hope everyone had a great weekend.

Hi, River!
The puppies are very cute! I am sure they all are going to find lovely homes!
Yes, Billy is cute too!
As you know, here is very hot too! Short walkies and lots of time in front of the fan for me!
Take care
Kisses and hugs

just came by to say hello!

my friend just got approval (pending home visit) to adopt a beagle mix. He has the size/shape of a beagle, a bit of a "hound" head but the fur coat of a shepherd.

that butterbean sure is cute

The Oceanside Animals said...

Your little Butterbean looks very sweet. Your house is obviously a great place to be a dog.

Hi River
Sounding hot hot hot!! We hope you are managing to stay cool.
Those puppies are adorable - we expect you will miss them too when they go to their new homes.
We did like the notion of a little butterbean beagle!
Your mom is great with dogs - you are so lucky to have her for keeps!
love and kisses

Tell them to be careful on that treadmill in case it springs to life! Happened to me once...well, maybe I jumped on while Old Girl was walking. Anyway.
Things have been h-o-t-hot here, too. Stay cool!

Hi River,
The pups look cute standing watch on the tread mill. Its really hot and humid here too so mum has taken to putting on our wet tshirts when we go for our afternoon walks. Most of the day though we are lazy about inside in airconditioned comfort and don't really want to go out in the heat.
Stay cool

Looks really hot! It is cold here...

Raising Addie said...

That was soo funny seeing those pups on that walking machine! It was like it was their own little castle that they took over!

What is up with this heat?! We are in day 14 of 100 degree temps! Lucy doesn't even want to go outside when it is this hot. Her black fur doesn't help anything.

River,

Those pups sure are cute but I don't blame you for being happy they're going! They probably don't leave you alone! I hope they get great forever homes.

Daisy Dog said...

Awww. Cute puppies and cute little butterbean. You guys are so cool to take care of all those fosters!

Jans Funny Farm said...

We just checked on Daisy (we're clearing out old sidebar material) and find her adoption back in March didn't work out. We figure you posted on it and we just missed it. We were so happy thinking she had a family of her own and was doing well.

Hi River! Those puppies are so cute! Billy is very cute too!
I hope he finds great furever homes! If I could send you some cooler wheather...

Hi River, those pups may be big, but they are so cute!!! It is very hot and humid here too. Thanks for visiting Phantom and leaving him such nice thoughts - he and Mom so appreciate it.

woo, the OP Pack

Dexter said...

Way too hot! Find the shade, little River. It is so sad that the lost beagle had tags and a collar. Oh well, what can you do. I hope he finds a good home.

Gus, Louie and Callie said...

Those little guys sure look like they are enjoying your home. That poor little pup probably doesn't want to return to his previous home since you all are so great to him...

What is it about pups that makes us love to sit on things? Especially things on things. For example, I ALWAYS prefer to sit on a blanket on the sofa. But the sofa is super comfy all by itself!

Do we all have super sensitive bums?

Ruby and Penny said...

Hi River
We are experiencing cold weather here. Where your winter coat cold weather. Want to trade?
The puppies & Billy are adorable.
Love Ruby & Penny

Kess And Her Mama said...

Billy has such a lovable face. Glad you managed to get some shade from the sun, even it mum forgot to get the base for it...

Hi River,

Sorry we haven't visited in ages. Our human has not been keeping up that well lately on here.

We hope it has cooled down there a bit now.

Have a great Sunday.
