This is GREAT! The sun is out, the ground is cool (and dry). Who doesn’t like playing in the dirt? The peoples enjoy working in the dirt, planting flowers, growing a garden. I’ve heard they say how good the dirt smells, welp puppies like the smell of dirt too.
Plus, I enjoy all the praise the peoples bestow on me. I roll, cover myself with dirt and run into the house to show them. They get so excited, yelling their approval and suggest I go outside to play more. Which I do so I can roll in the dirt again.
One time I came in the the He peoples used the vacuum on me. I’m not sure I liked that but I do enjoy playing with the vacuum. He knows that and could tell how happy I was so he played the vacuum with me.
You know what the real reason is? I have an itch. Yup, my back itches and I can’t reach it. My legs just don’t bend that way. I know the peoples have similar issues. I’ve seen them rub their backs on the corner of the wall.
