As today is one of the hottest days of the year I have put together the top 8 most critical tips to keep your pet safe and happy during these hot months πΎπΆ
As the summer sun blazes, it's essential to ensure the safety and well-being of our beloved four-legged companions. Dogs can easily overheat in hot weather, leading to heatstroke, dehydration, or paw pad burns. Here are some crucial tips to keep your pup safe and happy during the scorching months:
1. Hydration is Key: Always provide plenty of fresh, cool water for your dog. Carry a portable water bowl when you're out and about to keep them well-hydrated.
2. Avoid Midday Walks: The sun is at its strongest during midday. Opt for early morning or late evening walks when temperatures are lower. Hot pavement can burn your dog's paws, so test it with your hand - if it's too hot to touch, it's too hot for their paws.
3. Shade and Rest: Ensure your dog has access to shade and a cool resting spot. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods.
4. Never Leave in a Hot Car: Even with the windows cracked, a car can quickly become an oven. Leaving your dog inside on a hot day can be deadly.
5. Grooming: Regularly brush your dog to remove excess fur, but avoid shaving them completely as their fur provides some protection from the sun. Consult your vet or groomer for advice on the best summer grooming routine.
6. Pool or Sprinkler Fun: Many dogs love water. Set up a kiddie pool or use a sprinkler to let them cool off and have some water fun.
7. Watch for Signs of Overheating: Symptoms of overheating include excessive panting, drooling, lethargy, and in severe cases, vomiting or collapsing. If you notice these signs, get your dog to a cooler place immediately and consult your vet.
8. Dog-Friendly Frozen Treats: Make frozen treats using dog-safe ingredients like plain yogurt, peanut butter, or fruit.
