Over the years, I have seen some beautiful homes and landscapes and have met some wonderful people and pets. One home visit I did was to a farm where the residents had “fainting goats”.

The other day, I was talking to a friend who has 4 gorgeous Shelties. He has a “doggie van” and takes them with him on errands and the like. But this day, there were no Shelties in the van. When I asked him why the dogs were not along, he replied that it was much too hot to leave them in the van for any length of time.
