Another scorcher of a day down at the library today as the heatwave continues and while the numbers were fewer than usual, we still had a healthy cohort of courageous canine brave the heat and drop by to make things cooler (If one could call eight cool canines a cohort?)

So, joining us, in no particular order as usual, were... Duncan, Ruby, Bear, Kitty, Luke, Lily, Quinn and, last but seldom least and returning after a two-week hiatus, !

We'd like to say he was off on some globetrotting adventures, wooing beautiful lady dogs, sampling fine cuisine and changing the course of history but he spent a fair amount of the time sleeping, quite a bit napping and the rest snoozing, so basically living the life we'd all love to lead!! ❤
