Happy First Day of Summer!🌞
As we embrace the warmth of summer, remember the golden rule:
NEVER leave your dog in a hot car.
Even a few minutes can be dangerous. The interior of a car can become scorching, leading to heat stress or worse.
Emergency Steps if You Suspect Heat Stress:
✓ Move them to a cooler spot.
✓ Offer cool water.
✓ Use a fan or air conditioning if available.
✓ Wet their fur with tepid water (no ice-cold water).
✓ Seek immediate vet attention.
Spread the word and let's make this summer a safe and joyful one for our dogs.
Let's start a travel inspiration guide!
Share your summer destination with us! Whether it's a beach getaway, a mountain retreat, or a city exploration, we'd love to hear about your plans.

Did you know? On average, dog owners walk significantly more than people who don't own dogs, 150.3 minutes versus 110.9 minutes per week.
But wait, there's more! The benefits of walking with your dog are countless. Improved heart health, weight management, mental stimulation—the list goes on!
Tap the link below to explore why you should go for walks with your dog every day.

Feeding your dog just the right amount is key to their health and happiness.
Here's a quick guide:
✓ Check the Packaging: Follow the feeding guidelines on the back of your pack based on weight and life stage.
✓ Personalise Portions: Your dog's unique needs may differ. Adjust their portion based on their activity level and age.
✓ Watch Their Weight: Regularly assess their body condition to keep them at a healthy weight.
✓ Structured Feeding: Avoid overfeeding by establishing regular meal times.

Treats can be a fantastic way to express love and affection to our dogs, but responsible feeding is essential to prevent potential health problems and maintain their overall well-being.
Here's how to ensure treats are given in moderation:
✓ Keep Treats Under 10%:
Treats should never exceed 10% of your dog's daily calorie needs. Adjust portion sizes based on your dog's size, age, and activity level to prevent potential weight gain.
✓ Low-calorie Choices:
Opt for treats with low calories. For training, go for small, low-calorie options that allow you to reward positive behaviour without overloading your dog.

How to Teach Your Puppy to Walk on a Leash? Here's how to teach leash manners:

Leaving food out for your dog to eat at their leisure, may seem convenient, but it can have negative effects on your dog's health and well-being.
Here's why you should avoid free feeding:
✓ With free feeding, it's challenging to monitor how much your dog eats throughout the day. This can lead to overeating and weight gain, potentially causing health problems like joint issues, diabetes, and heart disease.
✓ Leaving food out for extended periods, especially in warm weather, can lead to food spoilage. This can result in gastrointestinal issues for your dog, including vomiting, diarrhea, and discomfort.
Implementing a feeding routine is recommended for maintaining your dog's health and preventing potential health issues.

How are you supporting your active dog's joint health?
✓ Active dogs can put extra strain on their joints, so it's crucial to provide them with the right nutrients.
✓ Omega-3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA play a vital role in joint health. They contribute to the overall well-being of joint tissues, enhancing flexibility and mobility.
At Eukanuba™, we understand the unique nutritional needs of active dogs.

Is your dog drinking enough water?
Just like us, proper hydration is essential for supporting your dog's overall performance and well-being.
✓ Ensure your dog has access to fresh and clean water at all times, especially during and after physical activities.
✓ Encourage regular water breaks to prevent dehydration.
✓ According to the NRC 2006 (The National Research Council), it is recommended that dogs consume a range of 37.5 to 72.9 mL of water per kilogram of their body weight each day.
✓ This guideline may need to be increased during intense exercise or in hot weather conditions and can vary depending on your dog's breed, size, and activity level.
📷
Change can be overwhelming for your puppy, so it's crucial to make their transition as smooth as possible.
Don't switch your puppy's diet during their first days in a new home. Keep their meals consistent to reduce stress.
If dietary changes are needed later, make them gradually over four to seven days.
Your puppy's comfort comes first. Diet Changes Can Wait.

Keep Your Dog Cool in the Heat!
When exercising your dog, remember that heat can be a significant factor. Be cautious, especially on hot, sunny days, as dogs can be prone to heat stroke.
Look out for these signs of overheating:
- Excessive drooling
- Seeking shade
- Seeking water
- Heavy, continuous panting
- Sluggishness and slowing down
- Hazy eyes
- Increased pulse
- Vomiting
If your dog shows any of these signs, pause the activity, find some shade, offer water, and help them cool down.
If symptoms persist, consult your vet for advice.
And don't forget, choose the cooler parts of the day for your outdoor adventures whenever possible!
Wondering why your dog might be gaining weight? Here are some reasons to consider:
✔️ Overeating: Whether it's too many calories in their regular meals or sneaky human food scraps, excess consumption can add up.
✔️ Lack of Exercise: Inactivity can contribute to weight gain. Make sure your pup gets enough playtime and walks.
✔️ Post-Surgery Changes: After spaying or neutering, their calorie needs may decrease. Adjust their diet accordingly.
✔️ Medical Factors: Sometimes, underlying medical conditions or treatments can play a role. Consult your vet for guidance and potential solutions.
Remember, a healthy dog is a happy dog!
Fueling your active dog with healthy fats is a must! Here are some reasons to consider a diet that contains healthy fats for your dog:

Are you wondering how much exercise your puppy needs? Let's break it down for you!
Puppies have boundless energy! But remember, their little bodies are still growing and developing.
✓ Opt for short walks. This ensures they get some exercise without straining their developing muscles and joints.
✓ While fetch is a blast, keep it short and sweet to protect those growing bones. Zoomies and making new friends at the park can be just the right amount of activity for your pup.
✓ Combine exercise, play, and obedience training into one exciting package! This not only gives your puppy the workout they need but also sets the stage for good behaviour and a positive attitude throughout their life.
Remember, it's all about balance and building a strong foundation for your puppy's future.

Did you know some dogs won't drink water from a bowl placed too close to their food? It's true! They have a natural instinct to avoid water near their food source, which stems from their ancestors' survival instincts. As the weather gets warmer, it's crucial to keep your dog hydrated. try placing their water bowl a little distance away from their food to encourage regular hydration. Remember, if you ever suspect that your dog isn't drinking enough water, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian for proper guidance. 📷 @zoestrapp.photography

Ready to try Canicross? 👏🏼 First up, you’ll need the right gear. Be sure to fit your dog with the appropriate size Canicross harnesses which you may be able to purchase from your pet specialty store or online. Get your dog used to being tethered to you by walking short distances while gradually increasing speed and length. Like any cross-country sport, canicross is primarily off-road, so you’ll also want to invest in the right running shoes for the terrain. Whether it’s canicross or jogging, your dog’s ability to perform will come down to training, body condition and nutrition. Once your dog is ready to run, consider Eukanuba™ Premium Performance, which was made specifically to deliver the nutrients that running dogs need.
