☀️🐾 **BANK HOLIDAY HEAT ALERT** 🐾☀️
With temperatures set to reach **30°C**, please think twice before walking your dog during the hottest parts of the day. Dogs can suffer from heat stroke very quickly — and it can be fatal.
💧 Keep fresh water available at all times
🌳 Stick to shaded areas and keep walks short
🌅 Walk early morning or later in the evening
🚫 Never leave dogs in cars — even for a few minutes
🐾 Check pavements with your hand before walking
Signs of heat stroke include:
⚠️ Excessive panting
⚠️ Drooling
⚠️ Lethargy or collapse
⚠️ Vomiting or distress
If in doubt, keep them cool, keep them rested, and keep them safe. A missed walk is far safer than a medical emergency.
Please help us spread awareness and protect our four-legged friends this bank holiday ❤️🐶
