Very common summer dangers for your dog 🐾➡️

Hot Weather
Walk your dog during the cooler times of the day. During long walks or play sessions, take regular breaks in shaded areas to allow your dog to cool down and have a drink. This will help prevent overheating and dehydration.

Ticks & fleas
With all of the time your pet will be spending outdoors, one of the biggest dangers is ticks. Ensure to check your dog after every walk. Pay special attention to areas like behind the ears, under the legs, and around the tail.

Heatstroke
Short-nosed breeds or breeds with dark or dense coats are particularly susceptible to heat stress. Keep an eye out for signs of dehydration, such as excessive panting, dry nose and gums, lethargy, and loss of skin elasticity. If you notice these symptoms, get your dog to a cool place and offer water immediately.

Bees & wasps
Stings can be harmful to your dog for several reasons, ranging from mild discomfort to severe allergic reactions. Seek veterinary advice, especially if your dog shows signs of a severe reaction or has been stung multiple times.
Keep your dog away from areas with high insect activity, such as public bins cans, and outdoor picnic areas. If a bee or wasp approaches, keep calm and gently move your dog away.

Pools & water
Some dogs may not have yet mastered the doggie paddle, so don’t assume your dog knows how to swim. If your dog does enjoy splashing around, always rinse off after a swim. The chlorine, salt and bacteria in pools and lakes can be harmful.

Hot pavements
Hot pavements can burn your dog’s paw pads. Walk your dog during cooler times of the day

BBQs
Many foods cooked on a BBQ are actually not too good for your dog.
Bones: cooked bones, especially chicken bones, can splinter and cause choking.
Corn on the Cob: dogs may try to eat the entire cob, which can cause choking or intestinal blockage.
Skewers: wooden or metal skewers used for grilling can be very dangerous if ingested
Onions and Garlic: toxic for dogs

Extra Fur
Brush your dog regularly to remove loose fur and prevent matting. Brushing helps distribute natural oils, keeping your dog’s coat healthy and shiny.

Summer has arrived, yet the hot weather, grass seeds, heatstroke, blue-green algae, and bee stings can all prevent you and your dog from enjoying it.

Remember, if it’s too hot for your hands or your bare feet, then it’s too hot for their paw pads! ⚠️

If you’re unsure whether it’s okay to let your pet go for a walk on pavements, a simple way to test the temperature is by holding your bare skin on the tarmac for five seconds ⏱️

If you find it painful, then your pet will find it painful to walk on!

To protect your pet, it’s best to avoid walks during the hottest part of the day, which is usually between 8am and 6pm. If you can't safely exercise your dog, missing a day won't hurt.
