Keep your dog cool in hot weather
Dogs can have the same troubles that we do - dehydration, overheating, and even sunburn. If you keep a few thing in mind and take action early, you and your dog can have a great summer:It's summertime and the weather is hot, sometimes too hot for your dog!
- Take your dog to the vet for a full check-up before summer starts. Mosquitoes are very active in summer and carry the larvae for heartworm.
- Cars can be deathtraps for dogs, carry a gallon jug of cool of the early morning or evening.
- Bring outside dogs inside on hot days.
- A trip to the groomer, especially for dogs with heavy or long coats, is always a good idea.
