Not everybody is a huge fan of fireworks—some dogs and cats suffer from intense anxiety triggered by the loud noises produced by fireworks and thunderstorms 🎆

With Canada Day coming up and storm season upon us, try to set-up some protected areas in your home where your pet feels safe. You can create a safe space in a basement, cover a kennel with a thick blanket, and keep blinds shut during fireworks and storms. Providing positive reinforcement during times of intense noise is also helpful, using high-value treats (the good stuff!) to help reassure your pet. Short-acting anxiety medications are also an option for our high-stress critters, so chat with your veterinarian about what may be most suitable for your furball.

Have a very happy Canada Day, all! 🍁

Just like in humans, heat stroke in animals is caused by an unsafe increase in body temperature. For dogs this can happen very quickly in hot weather because they don't have an abundance of sweat glands to help regulate their internal body temperature—their main method of temperature regulation is through panting (note: for this reason, dogs wearing muzzles can be at a higher risk of heat stroke because their ability to pant is restricted. If your dog requires a muzzle, we recommend properly fitted basket muzzles that allow dogs to pant normally).

Signs of Heat Stroke in Dogs
- Increased breathing rate
- Dry or sticky gums, abnormal gum color, bruising
- Lethargy, disorientation, collapse
- Vomiting and diarrhea
- Seizures

Heat stroke is a life-threatening emergency. If you suspect your pet is experiencing symptoms, seek immediate medical attention.

Stay safe this summer!
- Avoid excessive activity in hot weather
- Always ensure your pet has access to shade and water when outdoors
- Be sure to keep your pet in a well-ventilated area when temperatures are high (no hot cars or dog houses).
