Dogs and hot cars
On a warm day, the temperature inside a parked car can rise dangerously fast 🌡🚗
‘Not long’ is too long. If you can’t take them with you when you leave the car - leave them safely at home.
Heatstroke is a veterinary emergency. Symptoms include:
🐶Heavy panting
🐶Excessive salivation
🐶Rapid heart rate
🐶Bright red gums and tongue
🐶Weakness, confusion or collapse
If you see a dog in distress in a hot car, first call 999, then seek veterinary advice urgently.

Unlike us, pets have no understanding that hot weather can be harmful. We control their environment, their access to water and their exercise, and they can’t speak up if they start feeling unwell. Heat stroke can rapidly progress and, even with veterinary treatment, is often fatal.

Here are some top tips on how to help your dog stay cool during a heatwave. 🐶☀

Meet Eddie the Border Terrier! His owner booked a
FREE Summer Smiles dental check - and it may have
saved his life. 💚
The check confirmed dental disease and a lump on
his gum and he was booked in for a biopsy and
dental. On the recommendation of his vet, his owner
agreed to pre-op bloods to check that it was safe to
proceed.
The blood results led to a scan, which then led to life-
saving surgery for a serious condition! Eddie made a
full recovery – and you can read his full story here:
