☀️ 🥵 ‼️

🚨 The Met Office has issued a rare red weather warning, for 9am Wednesday 24 June - 9pm Thursday 25 June, as temperatures across the UK continue to rise. 🚨

Pet owners should take extra care to ensure their pets stay safe in the heat.

🐾 When walking your dog, remember the tarmac test: place the back of your hand on the ground for five seconds. If it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for your dog's paws.

☀️ Other ways to help keep pets safe in the heat:
💧 Ensure they always have access to fresh drinking water
🏠 Provide plenty of shade and cool areas to rest
🚗 Never leave pets unattended in a vehicle, even for a short time

If you're concerned that your pet may be suffering from heatstroke, contact your veterinary practice immediately.
