O'R, you are a mystery !

Dear O'Riley,
Oh, how I wish we could 'talk' :( Today was very hot and humid (we set a record of 90' today) yet there was nary a cloud in the sky or a storm in 100 miles in any direction........and yet you were troubled..............your ears were back, you were listening so carefully, you were panting, whiny and you were anxious..........after awhile you started to paw at me.........I finally gave you 2 mg Clon............I HAD to leave ( I left you outside) and knew you would be okay as there were no storms in sight. When I arrived home you were fine.
Later we went on a Golden Retriever Rescue home visit.........you were SO good and everyone loved you yet you were still panty/anxious ( hard to tell if it was the strange house and people or a continuation of your earlier anxiety)
I wish you could tell me why you feel anxious.........my gut tells me it is weather related......that the heat and humidity and barometric pressure affect you.........whatever it is you are calm now and lying next to me with the fan gently ruffling your fur..........a week from today you will get you puppy-cut and will look even cuter than you already are :)
You are a very good Boy !
