This week’s walks were all about keeping it cool, slow, and soggy! 🌿💧☀️
Plenty of shady strolls, splashy puddles, and happy (but damp) pups! 🐾🩵

☀️ Hot weather tip! ☀️

Keeping our dogs safe, cool, and hydrated during the summer is so important — and what better way to do it than with homemade pupsicles! 🐶❄️

These frozen treats are fun to make, packed with healthy ingredients like carrots, apple, chicken, and berries, and a perfect way to help your dog beat the heat. Just freeze in a food-safe container with low-sodium broth or water, and voilà — cooling enrichment AND hydration in one! 🐾

Swipe to see the easy recipe from The Dog Trainer School and remember:
❌ Avoid toxic foods like grapes, raisins, onions, avocado, chocolate, and anything with xylitol.
✅ Always have fresh water available.
✅ Walk early or late when it’s cooler.

Let’s keep those tails wagging safely this summer! 💦🍦
