Hello Blue Moon Kennel fans. As we all know the heat as of lately has been unbearable, especially for our furry friends. Here are a few tips to keep ur dog happy and healthy this summer.
Tip #1 Have a kiddy pool full of water or ice available for ur pup that they can cool themselves off when they want to.
Tip #2 walk your dog either early in the morning or later in the afternoon when the heat starts to lower to prevent ur doggie paws from being burned and injured, the pavement gets really hot and remember they dont wear shoes like we do.
Tip #3 Do not shave ur dogs fur. I know this one seems a bit counter productive, but remember the dogs coat is what protects them from the suns harmful rays. No coat = no protection. It Will likely leave ur poor friend cowered in a corner looking to get away from the sun.
Tip #4 In the hottest part of the day if u have ur dog in a cage try using the hose to cool ur furry friend down. Try either wetting ur pet or wetting the surrounding floor to ensure its cooler in their area im sure they will appreciate it.
Tip #5 make sure ur furry friend is well hydrated. Most doggy fatalities in the summer are related to serious dehydration.
Tip #6 Grooming, if your dog has a double coat like our huskies, make sure to groom their coat. All that old fur that's on your pup can make the heat feel alot more intense. When they get groomed alot more air can get into their coats and alot more heat can be released from the body. Thus making your dog feel cooler.
