Please Pet Owners, be aware of the dangers and pain dogs can go through by walking them on hot concrete, pavement, gravel and sand. And the potential for heat stroke on these hot days. With all the summer events and festivals, sometimes it's just safer to leave your 4 legged friends at home.
To my human moms & dads, this is what happens to my paws when you take me out in the scorching sun โ๏ธ when the pavement is so hot !
Remember I sweat through my paws, so in this heat I canโt get rid of my sweat as my paws are burning. Missing my walk wonโt harm me. Please let me just relax indoors and take me out when the sun is down๐พ
If you see someone walking their dog on hot pavement, ask them to take off their shoes for the remainder of their walk home. Maybe then they'll understand.
Thank you to 8 Below Husky Rescue for this valuable advice ๐
