🌡️ Hot Weather Dog Walking Tips from Trisha’s Dog Walking

As the hotter weather approaches, it’s important to keep your dog’s safety in mind—especially their sensitive paws! ☀️🐾

🔥 Pavement Tip:
On hot days, asphalt can reach over 140°F even if the air feels comfortable. If you can’t hold your hand on the pavement for 5-10 seconds, it’s too hot to walk your dog.

➡️ When in doubt, opt for grassy routes or playtime in the backyard to stay cool and safe!

‼️🚨 Watch for signs of heat exhaustion or heat stroke:
• Excessive panting
• Drooling or thick saliva
• Vomiting or diarrhea
• Weakness or collapse
• Bright red gums or tongue

💧 If You Suspect Heat Stroke:
• Move your dog to a cool, shaded area
• Apply cool (not ice-cold) water to their neck, belly, and paws

‼️If your pup shows any of these symptoms, move them to a cool area, offer water, and call your vet immediately.‼️

Let’s keep our furry friends safe, happy, and hydrated this summer! 💦🐕

⛔️ IMPORTANT NOTICE ⛔️

If your dog is chipped through 'Save This Life', you will need to re-register your dog with another chip company.
The company has unexpectedly shut down and unlinked it's database from national registries.

⛔️What You Need to Know:

The microchips themselves remain safe and functional.
However, due to the database shutdown, pet owners must take immediate action to ensure their pet's microchip information is accessible.

⛔️What You Need to Do:

To prevent any issues if your pet ever goes missing, please re-register your pet’s microchip number as soon as possible at www.freepetchipregistry.com. This free registry is connected to the AAHA Universal Pet Microchip Lookup Tool, ensuring your contact information is available when scanned.

‼️If you do not re-register your pet’s microchip, there will be no way to retrieve your contact information should your pet become lost.‼️

🔎 If you do not know if your pet is registered with 'Save This Life' and want to look up if and with which company your pet is registered, you can use the Microchip Registry Lookup tool: https://www.aaha.org/for-veterinary-professionals/microchip-search/
