It's too HOT in summers specially in our region. So help your buddy to BEAT THE HEAT.
1). Never, ever leave your dog in the car;
2). Make sure your dog has unlimited access to fresh water;
3). Make sure your dog has access to shade when outside;
4).Take walks during the cooler hours of the day;
5).When walking, try to stay off of hot surfaces (like asphalt) because it can burn your dog's paws;
6). If you think it's hot outside, it's even hotter for your pet – make sure your pet has a means of cooling off;
7). Keep your dog free of external parasites (fleas, ticks) and heartworms – consult your veterinarian about the best product for your pet;
8). Consider clipping or shaving dogs with long coats (talk to your veterinarian first to see if it's appropriate for your pet)
9). If possible let them have access to a swimming pool or fresh water source so they can cool their body. .
