The Dog Days (a period of 40 days beginning July 3 and ending August 11) are named for the Dog Star, Sirius, which is visible with the rising Sun at this time of year. Ancients associated this sky picture with the hot days that coincided with it. Sirius is the brightest star in the constellation Canis Major (Greater Dog).

Always wondered where the Dog Days of Summer came from but was to lazy to Google it! Thank you. My dream is to have a pool like this one for my pups to swim in. For the time being our kiddy pool will have to do!
