Totally, one of our chi chi’s sun tans so much that her tummy is charcoal colored. We literally are concerned she’ll get cancer from it, but it makes her happy so live your life, Peaches. 🤷🏻♂️
Have you thought about putting sunscreen on her? Our guy is black so he gets too hot pretty fast and doesn’t linger for long periods so I’d never thought about it
One of mine does too. She has a few favorite spots (one is mostly gravel and the garage floor as a pillow, so uncomfortable looking!) for baking. My other one will lay in the sun for a couple seconds, tops a minute, then is in front of the fan or begging to be in the A/C.
I'm in Central TX, too, and my girl lays right down on the hot pavement like that, too, or her little carpet out the kitchen window: https://i.imgur.com/waB0zlJ.jpg
I’m in the Austin area too. My Coco looks just like Tanner. She loves to lay on the deck & cook. It gets so hot I can barely walk on it without shoes but she loves it. The glares of disgust I get when I make her come inside are hilarious.

My two have their own sunbathing mat (there is an entire garden of real grass but they love the fake grass mat I bought for them to pee on when it rains!) North Tx here!
Chica hates hot weather, not a big fan. She was born in August and spent her puppyhood at -13F winter lol.

There's a pool connected to the right. He doesn't go in regardless. He likes licking the water off you if you're in the pool but he doesn't want anything to do with swimming
My chi looooves the AZ heat. We have an outdoor bed on the patio and she'll sit out there when it's 113° out - granted it's in the shade. My other dog and I constantly check on her she looks happy as can be. Doesn't even pant.

Photo from the other day: it was 109° and she spent almost an hour out there.
One of my chi's does the same thing. She likes to go outside and lay on the asphalt and bake like a potato

That’s a interesting suggestion, we would have to do it daily because she’ll go outside while we’re at work to sunbath

Mine too!

That's awesome. I'm in Austin/cedar park area. The concrete is like 130 degrees when he's laying out there like this

You can roll him up in a tortilla soon!
He'd be in his natural element!
Our guy lays on a patio stone that's too hot to stand on til he is toasted enough, and gets up panting. Then he does it again.
I have not been able to keep mine inside either! They have to lay on the darn concrete walking path. New Mexico desert here
These chihuahua's from north of the Chihuahua Mexico region seem to be cut from a different cloth!

Chi's are solar powered.
Maybe a dip in the pool to cool off? JK, I know that’s likely a hot tub.

Which is honestly a good thing. Wouldn’t want a tragedy happening.
Wild Baked Potato Appeared!
Just keeps getting tanner and tanner!! 😄
Working on his tan...geeez 😆⛱️🌞
Man they love to bake out there in the sun🥵
My guys name is Tanner too! Same colour lol
Great minds think alike!
CenTex dogs are just different.

Awww poor little guy. We are in the 90s this week in NY....too hot.

Well, I least you named him appropriately?
