🥶 keeping your pals warm ❤️

Does your pet’s fur protect them from the cold? ❄️

In most cases, yes! But in really wet and cold weather, if your pet isn't able to keep active or get themselves somewhere warm, their fur coat may not be enough. Like us humans, our pets, though thankfully rarely, can develop a dangerous and potentially deadly condition called hypothermia.

Any pet can become seriously ill if the temperature of their body drops too low, and acting quickly and doing the right thing could save your pet’s life.

Here are some key symptoms to look out for during the winter months! And if you suspect your pet may have hypothermia, it’s important to call your vet straight away and follow their advice ⚠️

[Visual description: Infographic about hypothermia in pets. Signs and symptoms include; shivering, drowsiness, confusion, clumsiness, pale gums and loss of consciousness/collapse. What you should do; 1. Call your vet straight away and follow their advice. 2. Get your pet out of the cold. Take them somewhere warm (not hot) and sheltered. 3. If your pet is awake, try to get them to drink some lukewarm (not hot) water. 4. If your pet is wet, use towels to dry them by rubbing them over. Change the towels when they become damp. 5. Be careful not to heat your pet up too quickly, this can be dangerous. Use blankets and towels under and over them to keep them warm. Using hot water bottles and heat pads will heat them too quickly and may cause burns.]

Happy birthday to Bebe from all the pups at Victoria's Dog Walks 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
Her kind, beautiful soul has made all my dogs whom she has walked with so very happy.
She's been on the early calls, evening drop ins and sleepovers with me.

Keep calm and stroke your dog! 🐶🥰

Did you know that stroking your dog is proven to lower your cortisol levels, aka your 'stress hormone'?

It will make them feel good too! A dog's loving gaze has been found to release a 'feel-good hormone' known as oxytocin in both you and your dog. So get cuddling this Stress Awareness Week! 💚
