Sparky isn’t eager to go out in the heat, but he likes to lounge in the sun.  I modified the software for my robot window shades so that the center shade doesn’t go all the way down.  I am so pleased that Sparky enjoys this feature.

Sparky won’t thank me for this because dogs don’t think that way.  I’m not certain that when Sparky feels a tug on his collar, he understands that I pulled on the leash.

Having home automation and a dog is giving me more project ideas.
