Flat-faced dogs like Pugs and Boxers are most prone but any breed can be affected.
Be aware of the signs, avoid exercise in the hottest part of the day and, if you think a dog in your care is showing these signs, the simplest advice is:

Get them wet
Get to the vet.

Another warm weekend incoming! Help keep pups safe by sharing these 6 signs of heatstroke every dog owner should know☀️

If your dog shows any of these signs, please contact your nearest vet, move your dog into shade, offer them some water to drink and start cooling them down with water, avoiding the face.
