Jakey Poo Got A New Pair Of Shoes

Sunrise

Given the fact that my car has been reading the pavement temperatures upward of 120º F (48.9º C) the last few days, and Jake has been showing discomfort with the hot sidewalks and roads, Oriana suggested I get him some shoes.

Jake was not happy with his new shoes when I first put them on him.

But after a walk on the hot sidewalk, rocks and pavement at lunchtime, he decided they were alright after all.

Jake was happy after our mile walk around the block.

Jake has become quite the Cosmo Dog. He rides in a sports car. He goes to the office and works with pretty women. He goes to Starbucks for Pupaccinos and mingles with the patrons. Today, he met a couple from England who own the balloon with the British flag.
