Today’s reminder about keeping dogs indoors during hot weather is an important one, especially when temperatures soar above 20 degrees and even past 30 degrees Celsius. It is of course crucial that we take extra care to ensure our furry friends stay safe by protecting them from the heat and avoiding overexertion. However, it’s also important to recognize that while caution is necessary, there are safe options for walking our dogs depending on their needs and the specific circumstances.

For those who have the flexibility in their schedules, walking dogs earlier in the morning or later in the evening when temperatures are significantly lower is probably the best option. But we have to recognise that this isn’t possible for everyone. This is why it’s important to avoid blanket statements suggesting that dogs should simply not be walked on hot days—this may not be practical or necessary for all dogs.

If you can’t get to a wooded area or another cooler spot, shorter, more frequent walks throughout the day could be a good alternative. This approach allows your dog to get outside while minimizing the time spent in the heat, reducing the risk of overheating, and it’s especially important that we don’t encourage them to over exert themselves.

On the other hand, if you can reach a cooler spot like Burbage Common for example, where the temperature is significantly lower, by as much as 10 degrees, under the canopy of the woods, a longer walk might be manageable. The shade provides a more comfortable environment, and the ground under the trees is much cooler, meaning your dog’s paws are protected from the risk of burns on hot pavement.

It is important to note that this advice is more applicable to younger, fitter dogs, which generally handle the heat better. Older dogs, those with thick coats, or breeds prone to heat sensitivity (like brachycephalic breeds) may not tolerate the heat as well and so absolutely, the advise would be that your dog is still be better off staying indoors, even in shaded areas.

Ultimately, while it’s vital to keep our dogs safe from the heat, we must also remember their mental well-being is important and not keeping on top of that, especially over a number of days can lead to all sorts of negative behaviours due to boredom. Getting out and exploring is a key part of their happiness. So, where it is practical to do so, making these kinds of sensible choices can allow our dogs to safely enjoy the outdoors and maintain their mental health.

However, if there’s any doubt, it’s always best to err on the side of caution and prioritize your dog’s safety above all and so keeping them indoors might be the right choice for your dog.

Looking at tomorrow I'll be walking up until around 10.30/11am, in a shaded location, strictly on lead and possibly shortening walks.

THIS WEEKS TEMPERATURES 🥵

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Warmer weather protocol.....

It'll be exactly the same as previous years.
So as your all probably aware, I will NOT walk a dog when temperatures reach 23°C, but this can also change due to breed, age, size etc.

Any brachycephalic dogs will NOT be walked at all in the warm weather, garden visits only.

When temperatures reach above 18°C sometimes less, I'll be walking in shaded areas, strictly on lead walks, and sometimes shortening the walks. My car is fully air conned, fresh drinking water in travel bowls, and cooling mats down. Dogs never in car longer than 5/10 mins.

I judge every day by day, as temperatures can rise quickly and other factors to consider are wind, humidity, sun, locations, cloud, travel time etc. as there are many factors to consider so things may change within short notice but be assured your dog will still be seen to if they’re home alone no matter what. But most importantly I will not risk myself or your dog when temperatures get high.

During my garden visits I will be making sure your dog goes to the toilet, I'll also be playing mind games and spending some quality 1-2-1 time with them.
If your home then walks will have to be cancelled.

If you have any further questions, then please message me♥️

As the weather is getting warmer again next week please be aware of these signs of heatstroke🥵🌞 and please be mindful of your dogs🐾.

I will be following my hot weather protocol, so walks will be in a shaded location, or changed to a garden visit, walks maybe shortened depending on dog and temperatures. As we all know by now I take each day as it comes, and will do what I feel best for the dogs.

If it's too hot for a walk in the sun, or a trip to the fields. Play some mind games in around your home, hide and seek with their fave toy, ice treats, frozen kongs. Or take them out for an early walkies, or a gentle "shaded" stroll in the woods🌲🌲🌲🌲

As soon as temperatures reach over 24°C i will only be offering garden visits. So if your going to be home then walks will be cancelled, as I have to prioritise home alone dogs.
