Thor is showing us the perfect way to stay cool during this hot weather with his tasty ice treat! ๐ง๐
While we may be enjoying the sunshine, our pets can struggle in the heat. Here are some top tips to help keep them comfortable:
๐ง Always provide fresh water
๐
Walk dogs early in the morning or later in the evening
๐ง Offer frozen treats
โ๏ธ Use cooling mats
๐ Provide a paddling pool if your pet enjoys water
โ๏ธ Keep up with regular grooming
โ๏ธ Donโt forget dog-safe suncream for lighter-haired pets who are more prone to sunburn
โ ๏ธ Signs of heatstroke to watch for:
โข Excessive panting
โข Drooling
โข Weakness
โข Vomiting
โข Collapse
โข Red or very pale gums
If you notice any of these signs, contact us immediately. In the meantime, move your pet to a cool, shaded area, apply cool (not ice-cold) water, and encourage them to drink small amounts.
Due to the high temperatures this week if you would prefer to move your appointment please do get in touch
