Gorgeous Dita and Max keeping cool in th dene, dita appreciating a few slurps of the extra cold water I always carry in th weather we've been having, I also use it to give them a quick splash on the belly, head, ears, paws etc 🥵 just for information it was debunked that dogs can't have ice and ice cold water to prevent over heating 😉 but they should never have too much when exercising or when they're heavy panting because of th risk of bloat! (Basically th stomach flipping and twisting) if a dog is suffering heatstroke the advice now is to use as cold a water as you can find, but not freezing, to either submerge or soak them and get them either in front of AC or a fan and then head to the vets. Cool first, transport second!
