Roscoe the Pug With Ice Bag On His Head- Miserable in the Seattle Heat

kisses for the cute little thing!!!!

To make Roscoe more comfortable in the Seattle heat, I put some ice cubes in a Ziploc bag and put them on his head.

This has been hard week for Roscoe. We were supposed to get new furniture on Friday, so I got rid of our old furniture on craigslist on wednesday. Because of a scheduling error, we won't get our furniture until Friday of this week!

Then, the heat wave hit Seattle - 95 degrees. So, he sits where his favorite chair used to be with an ice bag on his head. Miserable.

Oh poor Roscoe. I know how you feel. Couldn't dad have kept your favourite chair and bought an air conditioner instead?

My sister lives in Seattle and her pug died two days ago from heat exhaustion. Be sure to change that icebag often, the little guy needs it!

zoomar says:

Thanks everyone! Wow, I didn't expect this much reaction to the picture. Roscoe is doing well, it's a little cooler today and he got a dip in the shower to cool off.

dorkalie: What a sad story! I am so sorry to hear that. Seattle pugs are just not used to this terrible heat. I'm leaving work early just to check on him!
