As the temperatures climb, it’s crucial to remember that our beloved pets can suffer from heatstroke — a serious and potentially life-threatening condition. Pets can’t sweat like we do, so they rely on panting and other methods to cool down. When they overheat, things can escalate fast.
Watch out for these signs of heatstroke in your pet:
⚠️ Heavy panting or difficulty breathing
⚠️ Excessive drooling or thick saliva
⚠️ Bright red or pale gums
⚠️ Weakness or staggering
⚠️ Vomiting or diarrhea
⚠️ Confusion, disorientation, or collapse
⚠️ Seizures or unconsciousness (in severe cases)
If you notice any of these symptoms, act quickly and bring your pet to us immediately.
Ways to prevent heatstroke and keep your pet safe:
🐾 Walk your dog early in the morning or later in the evening when it’s cooler.
🐾 Always provide plenty of fresh, cool water.
🐾 Offer ice treats or frozen toys to help them cool down.
🐾 Keep your pet in the shade as much as possible, especially during peak heat hours.
🐾 Never leave your pet in a parked car, even for a few minutes — temperatures inside can skyrocket quickly.
🐾 Avoid vigorous exercise on hot days.
