🚨 A Quick Reminder for Dog Owners! 🚨
Please be careful not to overheat your dog especially during walks or exercise! 🐕☀️
We know jackets, coats, and vests can be super useful in cold weather, but when it's warm inside coats sometimes aren't actually needed, and they can become more harmful than useful. Dogs can’t sweat like we do, and if they’re running or walking in a coat, they can overheat fast even on what feels like a “mild” day.
❌ A dog in a jacket while exercising on a warm day is like you running in a winter coat.
✅ If you’re breaking a sweat in a T-shirt, your dog definitely doesn’t need an extra layer.
Wearing a coat constantly isn’t good for your dogs skin and the fur. Being covered all the time mats the hair making it hard to keep our dogs fur long and mat free.
Watch for signs of overheating:
Excessive panting
Drooling
Slowing down or collapsing
Bright red gums or tongue
Let them breathe, let them be comfy and save the cute outfits for cooler days. 🐶💦
