Temperatures are expected to reach 38C in parts of the UK this week! Please DO NOT walk your dog in these temperatures, as they’re at risk of burnt paws and/or heatstroke which can kill. ⚠️🐶☀️

It’s a scorcher today folks! ☀️☀️☀️
Please don’t walk your dog between the hours of 10am and 4pm when the day is at its hottest.
Dogs can overheat very quickly and often don’t show signs until they completely collapse.
Also be aware that even after 4pm the pavements may still be too hot for your pet to walk on-if it’s too hot for your bare feet it’s too hot for theirs!

🐕 🚶🚯 Going out for a walk is an important part of your dog’s day - and hopefully yours, too! To comply with lockdown measures, each person in your house can walk your dog once a day. Keep yourself, your dog, and other animals safe during the outbreak: https://bit.ly/2QJE6lS

🐶🐾☀️Keep your pets healthy in this heat wave!!! 🐶🐾☀️

Planning on walking your dog? Vets suggest that anything over 19 degrees in temperature, dogs are at risk of heat stroke. It doesn’t matter whether they are drinking water, or whether they are playing in a pool. Do NOT take your dog out or exercise them in this heat. Wait until early morning or late evening.
It was still 25 degrees at 5pm yesterday.

It only takes:
😢 2 degrees increase in body temperature for heat stroke to kick in
😢 50% survival rate with heat stroke
😢 Death can occur within 15 minutes

Adapt your routine, adapt what you do with your dog based on age, fitness and breed. Brachycephalic breeds need extra care.
