Get Flat



This is Otis he is very big and funny looking.
He has got a wrinkly face.


He was hot so he lay down where the water runs in the dog park.


This is me being flat.


But the best flat person was Deisel who I met at the vet
last week when it was very very hot. He is trying to keep his tummy cool.

Love 
from 
Buster


ps Dexter's mom made a funny picture  from the last picture.

She is funny!

    We call those (re: Diesel) the "froggy legs" around here. Our cat, Red (a.k.a. Reddy Redster) does that when he wants to stretch out and relax.

    Otis looks pretty hot. Poor baby!

    We call that "bunny feet" because our bunnies use to lay like that.
    In Tucson, wild bunnies cool off like that too, they and the quail dig holes in the damp earth around the citrus tree and lay down in the hot part of the day to keep cool.

    Buster, I don't blame Otis one bit for trying to stay cool, but it's funny to see you guys laying flat :)

    Hi Buster,

    I wonder why some dogs lie completely flat whereas others cannot or do not. I think it's a mystery.

    Love you and your friends going flat out. Those granite bricks in the water look like a great place to soak up coolness.

    Our cat goes flat when he is hot but he lays down on his back.

    HAHAHA the back area of Diesle is hilarious! My person wants to crop that part especially and hang it by my bed so I can laugh all day! It is not very hot here- there is always shade and cool water in case the temperature gets over 70. I like this weather a lot- No boots!
    URF!

    I guess being flat is the best way to stay cool. I love Otis's wrinkly face.

    Buster -

    I am glad that the dogs are flat voluntarily. When I first read the title I was worried that some "outside force" like a truck had made them flat! Whew! A relief to know that that wasn't the case.

    I call that the superman position... and I agree it's cooling to stretch out like that. Dex's mom sure has a funny bone in her.

    Licks, hero
