It depends of course on how quickly it heats up.\r\n\r\nThere's been times when I and my dogs have had to deal with heat waves  (100 degrees) and no AC.  Even though it was not as hot as AZ, it was certainly higher in humidity.  \r\n\r\nWhat helps is lots of good shade that is not near any sort of \"heat island\" (e.g. not near a large expanse of concrete/asphalt with long exposure to the baking sun), a wading pool, lots of cool, clean water to drink, an elevated cot (like this: http://www.amazon.com/Coolaroo-Elevated-Style-Knitted-Fabric/dp/B000P7JKD6/ref=pd_bxgy_petsupplies_text_y) and their own personal fan.  My dogs (collies) vastly prefer cyclone floor fans.  \r\n\r\nDuring heat waves, we don't go for walks in the neighborhood unless it's very early in the morning or late in the day.  Since I'm also experiencing the same heat, we are all pretty limp during the afternoons.   They really like it when I toss ice cubes into the wading pool so they can bob for them.

It was very encouraging. Our discussion made me realize that there IS help out there, and that she doesn't have several of the behavior problems that would probably make me cry on a daily basis! \r\n\r\nA few things he suggested (most of which was more obedience based): \r\n\r\n* Toys: I normally keep all of Scully's toys out, and she seems to get a bit bored of them. He suggested only introducing one at a time so she doesn't get too desensitized. \r\n* \"Look at me\" is going to be the biggest thing we focus on in our training. Maintaining this eye contact is going to help us in a plethora of scenarios; if she is looking at me and keeping that attention, she isn't reacting to whatever is bothering her. \r\n* \"Place\" and \"Release\" are also something we are going to go heavy on. I expressed how I can't be in my bedroom with the cat while she is out of the crate - he suggested we work with [one of these](https://www.amazon.com/Original-Elevated-Pet-Bed-Coolaroo/dp/B000P7JKD6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1492016865\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=raised+pet+bed) in the house, ONLY during training. I love this idea, because she isn't going to be allowed unsupervised, out of the crate for quite some time. \r\n* Slip leash vs. Harness: This was a bit of a tough sell for me. We have had great success with the Easy Walk - but he only uses a 6ft slip leash in training. I actually already had, which we tried out recently - the pulling was insane. His take is that harnesses actually increase the pulling; we'll see how that goes. \r\n\r\nOverall, I like the approach and I'm considering hiring him. He can help us get the obedience basics down first, so she is better set up for success once we see the behaviorist. I'm scheduling her evaluation with the behaviorist in about 4 weeks. \r\n ","subreddit_name":"reactivedogs","author":"ScullyPuppy"},{"body":"My vet recommended [this](http://www.amazon.com/Coolaroo-Elevated-Large-Brunswick-Green/dp/B000P7JKD6/ref=sr_1_1_m?s=pet-supplies\u0026amp;ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1441391751\u0026amp;sr=1-1\u0026amp;keywords=raised+dog+bed) for my rottie, he has hip displasia, being off the ground helps his old man bones.

In the middle of summer he is allowed to go in the pool with supervision, which he does, up to the second step.\r\n\r\nMostly he just stays indoors in the nice AC and sleeps on the cold ceramic tile floor in the dark bathroom in front of the vent.","subreddit_name":"dogs","author":"Synaxis"},{"body":"I prolly went through 4 beds before I found one my little dude likes\r\n\r\nhttp://smile.amazon.com/Coolaroo-Elevated-Large-Brunswick-Green/dp/B000P7JKD6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1431482677\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=coolaroo\r\n\r\napparently he likes a mix of soft and cooling, so I got an elavated bed and put a soft cover on it\r\n\r\n","subreddit_name":"Dogtraining","author":"kperkins1982"},{"body":"My dogs love their [hammock beds](http://www.amazon.com/Coolaroo-Large-Steel-Framed-Brunswick-Green/dp/B000P7JKD6?SubscriptionId=AKIAJPM23C7BXHMY73JA\u0026amp;tag=dh0net-20\u0026amp;linkCode=sp1\u0026amp;camp=2025\u0026amp;creative=165953\u0026amp;creativeASIN=B000P7JKD6).

This should be worked up over time at a gradual pace (leaving for short periods, gradually increasing the duration).
