Exercising in temps over 20 degrees can be a risk to fit healthy dogs. It is a much higher risk for elderly, obese, flat-faced or large breed dogs 🌡️🔥

No dogs have died from not having a walk but dogs have died from one walk in the heat - Don’t take the risk!

Take them for a walk early morning or evening when it’s cool 😎

Keep our furry companions safe and enjoy the weather 🌞
