🚨☀️ HEATSTROKE IN DOGS CAN KILL IN MINUTES ☀️🚨

If you suspect heatstroke — ACT FAST.
💦 WET THEN VET 💦

🐾 Call your local vet immediately and tell them you are on your way with a heatstroke patient.

❄️ Use a hosepipe and run it through to COLD, or immerse the dog in VERY cold water.
⚠️ Keep their head fully ABOVE the water at all times.

🚫 DO NOT drape towels over the patient — this can trap heat and make things worse.

💧 Keep cold water running over them until the car is ready.

🚗 Transport them in a cold, air-conditioned car straight to the vet.

Every second matters. Rapid cooling BEFORE transport saves lives. ❤️🐶

Please share — this information could save a dog this summer
