Consequently, we’re all excited and making plans. But what about our furry friends? Indeed, the summer season can be wonderful for [puppies](/puppies-for-sale/) . For one, there’s ample time for relaxation, and furthermore, time for training, and time for bonding, making it an important period in their lives as they grow. So then, what could puppies in summer be thinking of as they experience these warmer months? Let’s find out! ## **A Summer Day in the Life (From a Pup’s POV!)** **6:30 AM** Good morning! It’s another lovely summer day. I wake up after a restful slumber to fresh water from my bowl which Mom filled up. Ooh, something smells new outside. Time for a morning walk so I can feel the grass still damp with dew. The texture is much better than the pavement, I gotta say! Mom and I practice our sit and stay together. **8:00 AM** And we’re home. Feeling a bit warm, but not too much. I’m now resting in a shady spot with a cooled towel. Dad gives me a puzzle toy that has peanut butter on it. Yum. What a nice way to keep me engaged and cooled down. **10:00 AM** Time for some pool time with Mom! I love chasing bouncing balls around and splashing in the water to ease the warmth. Doing this with Mom keeps me strong, healthy, and comfortable on hot days. Enjoying this read?

I savor a chilled treat made especially for me. It is delectable, and also aids in my hydration and keeps me cool as I rest. I feel safe, cared for, and happy. **2:00 PM** Nap time! I snooze in a cozy corner while feeling the breeze from a nearby fan. My beauty sleep is essential for me to restock energy for the rest of the day. **5:30 PM** I’m up again! I go for another walk, with Dad this time. The pavement’s cooled down, so my paws won’t get injured by the heat. Oh, and I get to sniff EVERYTHING! Grass, flowers, trees, messages from fellow pups in the area. I’m feeling very connected, stimulated, and a bit wild – in the best way. **7:00 PM** Back home, and about to chow down. My dinner is a bowl of chilled food made with healthy ingredients that help hydrate me and aid my growing body. My human is so sweet – she gave me freshly-chilled water to make me extra refreshed!

[Meet our puppies](https://petlandoklahoma.com/puppies-for-sale/) **9:00 PM** It’s now time for my favorite part of the day: Cuddle time! I get to snuggle together with Mom AND Dad. Perfection. I drift off to dreamland, happy, cooled down, cared for, and looking forward to another joyful day in the sun! Best. Day. Ever. Zzzzz. Puppies in summer aren’t just about fun under the sun. The sunny season is also about broadening their horizons as they grow safely, and experiencing happiness as they strengthen their bond with you. And by providing proper care, your pup will surely delight in the magic of summertime safely and joyfully. Let’s make this a paws-itively perfect summer!

I’ve been thinking about adopting so I stopped in the other day to ask some questions. A young man named terry helped me and he was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I will be back! Posted on Google Daniel Quill Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been really unsure about what pet I should bring home as I’ve recently experienced a loss & didn’t know what kind of companion would support me best. A worker by the name of Terry listened to my concerns with compassion & grace. He matched me with the best fury friend I could have ever asked for. Great service!! Highly recommend!!!
