The “dog days of summer” refer to the hot days between July 3 and August 11 surrounding the moment when Sirius—the Dog Star—rises and sets with the sun. In Orange County Lawyer’s September 2022 issue, numerous OCBA members’ companions were featured flaunting their fur and enjoying the summer sun. By popular demand, we again feature your fur-ends. If you’ve been workin’ like a dog or had a ruff day, please enjoy these photos of dogs paws-itively having a ball. It may not be the cover of Vanity Fur, but we think some of these pooches are diamonds in the ruff—they all look quite fetching. Now put that juris dog-tor degree to good use, and keep reading.
