It's been a baking summer so far, with more hot weather on the way in much of the country

🥵HEATSTROKE IN DOGS

RECOGNIZE IT.🐾 PREVENT IT. 🐾SAVE A LIFE.

As record-breaking temperatures continue across the country, it's important to remember that dogs can develop heatstroke much faster than many people realize. A little extra awareness and good choices can save a life.

In addition to your own, please also keep an eye out for dogs in your area that may be in distress from the heat. Especially animals without shelter and any dog left in unsafe conditions.

👮‍♀️If you're concerned about a dog's welfare and don't feel comfortable approaching the owner, contact your local animal control or law enforcement so they can check on the situation.

See the graphic below for simple tips to help keep dogs safe during extreme heat, and how to identify warning signs.

🐾BLUE GREEN ALGAE WARNING FOR DOG OWNERS: Look Before They Leap! ☀️🌊
When the weather warms up, there is nothing better than watching our dogs cool off with a splash in the water. But before you let your pup take a dip, please take a close look at the water first.

Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) thrive in warm, stagnant water, and it is incredibly toxic to dogs.

Here is what you need to know to keep your best friend safe:

It acts fast: ⚠⚠⚠
If a dog drinks contaminated water, or even licks the algae off their fur after a swim, it can be fatal in a matter of minutes.

What to look for: 👀
It doesn't always look like "algae." Check out the image attached—it can look like a thick green pea soup, spilt paint on the surface, floating green mats, or even greenish streaks in the water.

When in doubt, stay out: ❌
If the water looks murky, has a strange colour, or has a strong musty smell, keep your dog on a leash and do not allow them near the water

🚨 If you suspect your dog has come into contact with blue-green algae, get them to a vet immediately. It is a medical emergency❗

Let’s keep our pups safe this summer! 🐕❤️

Perfect advise if all could do this we could help 💕

You judged them in 20 seconds.
Twenty seconds.

A dog barking.
Lunges.
Growling.

Maybe you rolled your eyes.

Maybe you muttered to yourself "just train that dog"
Maybe you were just thankful your dog "isn't like that".

But here's the thing.

Sometimes it only takes one frightening experience, one painful injury, one dog attack or one life-changing event for everything to change.

What you didn't see?
The six months before those twenty seconds.

You didn't see the early mornings.
The planning and precision behind a “simple” walk.

The tears.
The self-doubt.
The hours dedicated to helping their dog feel safe again.

Sometimes the kindest thing you can do isn't offer advice.

It's simply to create space.

Because what looks like an "untrained dog" to you, may actually be one of the hardest moments in someone else's journey.

There is always more to the story.
And that criticism?

It stays with people far longer than those twenty seconds ever will.
