They have the right idea. When it’s hot and it has been very hot this summer, my Shibas prefer the cool concrete floor. Next week, the forecast call for temps in the low 100’s so I guess we will be together a lot.
I recommend the Take Ninagawa Gallery near the Roppongi area of Tokyo. The gallery carries adventurous art and when I visited back in July, the gallery was showing politically inspired works in an exhibit described as “the fourth edition of its ongoing series of exhibitions without artworks.” I couldn’t resist painting on top of my photo of their slightly inconspicuous entrance. This image is not part of their art program.
