Still efforting, connecting with Sam down in Las Vegas for Big Ten football media days.

But in the meantime, we do have Wendy Walsh and the Humane Society here on Valley with us this morning. Wendy, how are you? Good morning. I'm fantastic. How about you, Ira? I am doing great. It's always great to have you here on the show. I appreciate you joining us each and every week to talk about the top dog of the week and more. so we always start out by asking you, is it a love train week?

Oh, it is not. each and every week to talk about the top dog of the week and more. So we always start out by asking you, is it a love train week?

Oh, it is not originally, actually.

We were thinking it was, but we had to cancel this week for different circumstances.

So we will be back in another couple of weeks, though.

So stay tuned.

Of course, if any folks out there are interested in rescuing a puppy, get on our love train email list. And you can do that at hs, hv.org slash love train.

And of course, we always, this time of year when we have weather forecast like we do for today where we have a heat advisory, we always like to remind everybody, take care of your pups and your dogs, your cats. Because it's hot out there. The pavement is very hot. The grass is very hot, and it's going to be scorching today. Right. No kidding. Yeah. And I always hear from people, they're like, oh, but my pet loves it. You know, my dog really loves to walk. I totally get it,

but also, please no, your dog doesn't make the best decisions. We need to decide for them.

So please, if it's too hot there for you, it's too hot for them. Put your hands down on the pavement

on weather walking. If you can't set it there for a minute, it's too hot for their paw pads too.

So keep them on the grass, keep those walks short, keep them just a potty breaks only.

And, yeah, keep them in shaded areas and definitely well watered.

Because dogs, you know, they don't sweat like we do, Ira.

You know, we're able to, like, cool ourselves down really quickly and they can't do that. So they go to heat exhaustion and worse much faster than we do. So please, please, please. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for keeping an eye out for your pets. Yeah, because I don't know if it's going to be hotter today in Ann Arbor or where we are or where you are, Sam, down in Vegas.

I think Sam might have it by about three degrees, but I think our heat index is going to be higher. No, I think it's going to be hotter. I am as to why I try for sure, definitely. But fortunately, I'm going to be inside out here in Vegas in the air conditioning but uh windy definitely definitely want to be

mindful out and check out the top dog i'm just joining in out here at what is it i'm trying to

keep track it's five in the morning out here in

Vegas, but I'm just jumping in. So who's the top dog of the week this week?

Oh, it's Huey. Hewys are top dog every week. Hewys about two years old, about 58 pounds,

came to us originally in April as a stray, and we have
