It is 4.17am, I have been up about half an hour which is early even for me, already the temperatures in my house are around 22 degrees.

Today is going to be scorchingly hot!

Be sure to get up and get out with your dogs as early as you can and remember, no dog ever died from missing one walk but many have for being walked in the heat.

Provide lots of fresh water.

Cool mats or damp towels for your dogs to lie on.

Have fans running.

If you have to travel with your dog today for any reason be sure that the airconditioning in the car actually reaches where the dogs are travelling,

If you are lucky enough to be at home with your dogs today or if you work and have a dog door to the garden, make sure you create as much shade as you can.

Enjoy the sun, enjoy the summer but be very mindful that heatstroke in dogs is a killer and can strike very quickly.

(And yes this is an AI generated picture because there is no way my dogs would sit still in a pool long enough to get a photo)
