โ๏ธ๐พ HOT WEATHER = HOT PAWS ๐พโ๏ธ
With extreme heat expected this week, please help keep dogs safe:
๐ถ Walk early morning or late evening
๐พ Try the 5-second pavement test โ if itโs too hot for your hand, itโs too hot for their paws
๐ง Keep fresh water and shade available
๐ Never leave a dog in a car โ not even for a minute
๐ง Swap daytime walks for cool indoor games, frozen treats and sniffing activities
Watch for signs of heatstroke: heavy panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, confusion or collapse. Cool them gradually and contact a vet urgently.
