As conditions become warmer, we have some good advice for keeping pets safe and healthy;
Do keep your dog indoors
Do make sure your dog has plenty of access to shade if outdoors
Do make sure there is plenty of fresh water available for your pet
Don’t take your pet out between 11am and 6pm on hot days
Do take your pet for a walk very early morning or very late evening when the sun has gone down in cooler temperatures
If your pet is older, overweight or brachycephalic take extra care on very hot days it may still be too warm early morning or late evening to take them out without risking heat stroke
If your pet is brachycephalic take extra care that they don’t overheat in warm weather, it doesn’t need to be a very hot day for a brachycephalic pet to get heat stroke out in the sun
Make sure the pavement/ground surface you’re walking your dog on is not too hot for your pet – don’t forget they don’t wear shoes!
Do play with your pet indoors and use interactive toys to keep them mentally stimulated
Never leave your pet in a car in hot weather in any situation
