Counteract the Effects of Heat:

Sonja and other Bulldog lovers, check this out! - The Dog Forum for Dog Lovers - Non-Sporting Group: "it got as high as 100 degrees today, and the buildings were NOT air conditioned. No dogs died (thank dog), but most of the dogs ended up sitting or laying down in the ring. The St. Bernard spent the entire time on the ground, having his groin iced and paw pads spritzed with water"
--good advise for the heat - cool the paws and the groin area
