I had this sitch kinda... my neighbors have a chow that is outside almost all the time and the the yard is kinda sketchy and i don't see water (but it could be far back on their porch) . and also to their credit they groomed him well (he was shaved except for his head! looks silly.) for the heat... I guess after a few months of observing he just enjoys being outside. Although I've only lived here for about 5 months... We'll see when the serious cold weather comes...


but yeah, when is it you decide there is a real problem?
