It was interesting to see that she put her belly into the water but didn't roll over. I think she cools herself through her belly and her paws.
The water sits on the top of the grass when the groundsmen water, and I think it's because the topsoil was removed when a water harvesting system was built under the ground in this area.
We often see lines of disturbed soil across the playing fields, and one groundsman told us it's so that the water might penetrate to lower levels. You can see that the grass grows in lines around these spots.
Some areas have to get special attention.
Thank goodness for all the hard work the turf specialists put in. Otherwise the whole area would look like this part that isn't maintained.

The lines are interesting. We can totally see the greener grass growing by the lines. Never really thought about that before. Interesting
Lassie and Benji, the water harvesting infrastructure is amazing. I guess other dry parts of the world do things like this also.
We are not looking forward to the hotter temperatures at all. We hope you get some cooler weather soon, Penny.
Mitch and Molly, I think dogs must love the fact that these days they usually live inside the house with their human families. In the old days it must have been awful in winter, and in summer, too.
