Em & Ally ~ My Hot Dogs
The very first thing I wanted to do for Dog Days of Summer week is to highlight the dogs and, when necessary (ha!) other family members on a hot summer day. I asked my daughters to pretend they were dogs outside on a hot day, and this is what they came up with. Thankfully, the photos submitted by my readers are adorable and 100% less pathetic than mine. LOL! Special thanks to Elisabet, Serena, Jen, and Tobi for submitting their pics.
I’ve posted the pictures here on my Dog Days tab. Please go there to view the pictures of Baby, Charlee, Hershey, Nestle, and Lola. Then, vote for your favorite below. You can help your favorite puppy win his family one of the following prizes:
First Prize: A brand-new copy of the Dog Days of Summer book of your choice & a handmade Dog Days of Summer bookmark
Second Prize: Copy of “Marley & Me” book & a Dog Days of Summer bookmark
Third Prize: Dog Days of Summer bookmark
In case you can’t read Nestle’s caption in the poll, it says: hose me down! I apologize for it not being very readable with that background, but I had to go with it because of my summer theme this week.


Well, darn, I meant to submit a picture and it slipped my little mind! Your girls are adorable, by the way! I voted!
Love the girls…can’t wait to see who wins this photo finish! LOl I love the little tag lines you gave each picture in the poll.
P.S. Nestle is listed as Hershey in bold…looks like Hershey has two entries! LOL
I was just as tired as Charlee on that hike. He and I were in the rear, and he just sat down on my feet and told me he wasn’t going any further. But I wasn’t about to carry him myself! LOL
I loved all the pics. And your girls…they are precious.
Those pictures are priceless! It makes me just a little sad to see them, and makes me miss my baby just a little bit more!
Thanks for letting me know about the Hershey/Nestle bug. I’ve fixed it! I’m glad everyone’s enjoying the contest!
I love the pics and I love the names Hershey and Nestle! How cute!
Your girls are soooo cute
Love all the pics submitted!
Adorable pics of your girls!!
I wanted to let you know that I sent you a few emails about my Bookmark It! Club post and they’ve all bounced back to me and I’m sending them to the address you have listed here on your blog. Do you have a new email address?
Bonnie, my inbox was overfull. That’s why you were getting emails back. I think I actually did get them.
What a great idea! They are all so adorable! I wish I had submitted my dogs too. Maybe next time!
Go, Charlee, go.
I would have had my dog Dakota in here, but sometimes I’m a little slow on the draw.
so cute! I would love to have seen this challenge when it started, but oh well. I did recently read a great book starring a dog: Lost and Found by Jacqueline Sheehan. fyi
I love the adorable dogs. I have been so busy preparing for the first day of school . With registration, financial aid, school parking and books, what a mess. that I forgot to submit my picture of my little cutey pie, Nachat. I am rooting for you Nestle.
You can do it Charlee!!
Thanks for the vote!
