Desert Dogs

Each year, about mid-October, temperatures drop 10+ degrees in Borrego Springs from previous summer months, and part-time residents start returning to our desert paradise.


When the thermometer starts dropping below 100, my husband makes a road trip from Seattle to Borrego Springs with our two golden retrievers, Yogi and Woody.  The three of them spend their time in Borrego soaking up the sun, walking the golf course, chasing rabbits and taking an occasional dip in the pool.  I pop in and out as my schedule allows and work remotely while in Borrego Springs.

I wondered how the dogs would like living in the dessert.  They LOVE it!  Lots of fresh air, exercise and the warm sun has been good for all of us. 

At fifteen human years, Yogi isn't too interested in swimming considering his back legs arn't what they used to be.  But he loves watching the rest of us swim!

YOGI'S FAVORITE PLACE TO SUN HIMSELF
  On the other hand, Woody (who is three) can't get enough of the pool.
