🔥 HEAT WARNING FOR WORKING RETRIEVERS 🔥

As temps climb across the U.S., now’s the time to stay sharp about heat management in your training setup. One often overlooked detail: be sure to dry your dog off before putting them back in the kennel after water work. 🐾💦

Even on hot days, a wet coat can trap heat against the body once the dog is confined. Retrievers have double coats designed to insulate when wet — perfect for cold water retrieves, but a serious risk in summer heat. ☀️🧊

✅ Towel them off

✅ Use airflow or fans if possible

✅ Never shut a wet dog in a hot trailer or box

Protect the dog first — always. 🛑🐕

☀️ Training in the Heat: Safety First for Your Dog ☀️

Tomorrow marks the first 90° day of the summer, and it’s a good reminder that heat exposure can be dangerous—even deadly—for dogs. While regular training and exercise are important, working your dog in high temperatures requires extra care.

If you plan to train or walk your dog, stick to early mornings or late evenings, when the pavement and air are cooler. Even short midday outings can lead to overheating, especially for dogs with thick coats, short snouts, or lower heat tolerance.

A few key reminders:

* Hot pavement can burn paws—if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for their feet.

* Dogs cool themselves by panting, which is much less effective in hot, humid conditions.

* Avoid extended outdoor sessions in direct sun.

If your dog’s training is important to you (and we know it is), move your work indoors during peak heat hours. Calm, focused behaviors practiced in a cool environment are not only safer—they’re more productive.

Train smart. Stay safe. Your dog depends on you.

You can become a “certified” dog trainer in 6 weeks, without touching a dog!
