Gonna take the dog for the arvo walk and by walk I mean take him out to the front porch where he'll stare at me with the "What the fuck?!" look but at least he'll stop with the "where's my fuckin walk" looks I'm getting now.

I took him out when going to the car for some tools, he absolutely stayed on the porch with a strong "nu-uh" vibe about him. I took the tools through the side gate to the shed and he still wouldn't leave the porch to run around the side and come back in that way. So I went an got him and brought him back into the AC, he had a big drink on the way back.
