Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
So without rain, the grass doesn't do so well.
The Big Guy was looking at the forecast, and it does have rain in the forecast. But he's seen that before. Then it doesn't rain.
Yesterday was a very exciting day at my forever home. The Big Guy got to take a bunch of tools upstairs and he started making a hole in the wall. Now, not just any hole and not just any place. He needed to get access to the back of his washer and dryer.
Boy oh boy, did he ever make a mess.
After he was able to make the holes in the wall, he was also able to disconnect the old washer and dryer and then was able to get them out of the room that they were in. Sort of...
He had to get the dryer out, which he did with Tonya's help. But then when it came to the washer, well, he got stuck and had to sit in the closet for a bit.
Tonya brought him a chair, a fan and a BIG glass of water.
Eventually the delivery guys were able to make quick work of removing the washer and then install the new ones. Although the Big Guy had to do most of the hook ups himself. Which he was able to finish, using the hole he had created.
Tonya says, next renovation, they will be getting the hole professionally done and cleaned up. The Big Guy can't agree more with this. He has to do some trim work and put a piece of wood in the old hole. But Tonya wants to go to the beach today. So this work is going to have to wait.
Then again, it's so hot upstairs, I'm surprised that the Big Guy doesn't hire a contractor to do that anyways.
But he got some ideas on how to make it look nice. So we will see.

Bye bye fur now
Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
So last night, after the Big Guy gets home from work, they sit outside for a bit. But the mosquitoes are out in full force. They are doing the swat and swish as they are sitting out there.
So they get some mosquito spray so that they can continue enjoy sitting on the deck.
Well that lasts about 30 minutes before they decided to come inside after all.
It wasn't much better for myself. Those mosquitoes wanted my paws, nose and eyes. I was NOT enjoying being outside.
BUT it's so HOT inside the house. It's like an oven. As soon as you open the door, BAM, you hit by this wall of heat. When I look at this thermometer that is besides the computer, it's showing it's 28 C inside the house.
How's a dog supposed to get his sexy on? Geesh... humans... work with me here...
Because my humans are worried about me burning my paws on the pavement, I haven't been going for walks. Today being garbage day, would have been a really nice day to go for walks. Now I'm just laying inside the house, trying to find a cool spot.
I've been seeing pictures of other dogs being in pools. Well if my kiddie pool is any indication of what is going on, their filter must be a hot mess. I'm dropping fur at an incredible rate. Yesterday there was a gust of wind and the Big Guy seen a bunch of fur fly off me. He could hardly believe it.
They try to brush me, but that only lasts a few minutes, before I've had enough of that. I only want to go lay down and pant.

Good morning Cape Breton.
Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
Did you know that I've got this power tail?
Yes, I do.
I can imagine that if the Big Guy was a painter. He would be trying to figure out, how he could get me to use my tail to paint stuff for him.
This tail will clear off coffee tables.
It will fan you when you are warm.
It will also fan you when you are cold.
It will knock over small children.
My tail will remove Christmas Ornaments that are hung too low on the Christmas Tree. Especially if they are expensive. Oh yea, there is a mathematical formula that directly correlates how long they will last, the expense of the ornament and their destruction, before being removed by my tail.
The Big Guy has used my tail as a rudder to get me to go in the direction he wants me to go.
The Big Guy will also use my tail to get my attention when I'm pissing him off about something. Especially when were out walking. It can be the first thing he will grab when I'm about to lunge.
He's gonna be sorry if he breaks my tail.
I gotta go, the Big Guy is getting pissy about watching Big Brother. I best go and keep him company while he watches his show.

Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
Soon enough, the Big Guy will be complaining about how cold it is outside. How living where the air hurts his face is NOT a good thing.
Complain complain complain
Why can humans be more like dogs?
Then again, not sure how the lady humans would feel about the men humans sniffing their crotches all the time when they would be greeting them. I'm pretty sure I know how the men humans would feel.
Ladies, may I present my crotch for you to sniff...
That would take a lot of people off their high horses. Tonya says that she has met people who have "Big Feelings". I guess this means they brag a lot about the stuff they have.
Did I tell you about the Big Guy and him walking on the pavement without shoes last weekend?
OK, so the Big Guy is doing up a burnt end roast. So this means that he is pretty much in and out of the house as he is going from his BBQ, back inside to get something, back outside, then back inside, rinse and repeat.
OK, so you get the picture. Now, Tonya has done the floors, so he doesn't want to tramp in dirt and what not from outside. So he steps outside without his shoes on.
The back deck is warm to his feet. But it's all good. He steps off the stairs into the concrete pad. Oh my, but this is MUCH warmer on his feet.
He steps off the concrete pad on to his paved driveway. SCORCHING HOT!
He pretty much stopped working on the BBQ and ran back inside to cool off his feet.
Now, imagine your dog...
He can't run away...
He has a leash on and the humans are forcing him/her to walk on the pavement while in the heat.
I know that the Big Guy feels for me when we are out walking.
