Your dog isn’t being weird when they lie on the kitchen tiles or drag their bed into the bathroom. They’re just trying to stay cool. Help them out with simple tools:

✔️ Cool mats or damp towels
✔️ Frozen Kongs
✔️ A paddling pool
✔️ Plenty of water and shady spots

Little things make a big difference when it’s hot.

🚗 𝗛𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝗴𝘀 #𝟰: 𝗡𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗿
This one’s blunt, because it needs to be: never leave your dog in a hot car. Not for 10 minutes. Not even with the windows cracked. Not while you “pop in quickly.”

𝗗𝗼𝗴𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗱𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝟭𝟱 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀. And while we’re at it, check the boot if that’s where your dog travels. The front might feel fine, but the back can be roasting. Use shades, crack the windows, and keep that air moving.

🌳 𝗛𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝗴𝘀 #𝟯: 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿
If you do head out for a walk, go early or late and choose shady spots or safe water routes. Trees are doing their summer magic right now and creating wonderful cool havens.

𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝘀𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸, just make sure the water is fresh and running. And skip it if the river’s in spate. A cool wander beats a heat emergency any day.

🎾 𝗛𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝗴𝘀 #𝟮: 𝗗𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗲𝘁𝗰𝗵
Let’s talk about ball-throwing in the heat. I know it feels like you’re being the fun guardian when you chuck that ball across the field... but dogs will chase until they drop. Literally.

Every year, dogs die from heatstroke after playing fetch in the sun. They won’t stop just because they’re hot, they’ll stop when it’s too late. On hot days, ditch the ball and go for a gentle sniffari instead.

🔥 𝗛𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝗴𝘀 #𝟭: 𝗣𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸
Summer’s finally here, and while we might be loving the sunshine, our dogs might be quietly suffering. Just because it’s a beautiful day doesn’t mean it’s walkies weather. If it’s too hot, it’s too hot. Full stop.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝗮𝘄-𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸: place your hand on the pavement for 3 seconds. If you’re yanking your hand away because it’s scorching, imagine how your dog’s paws feel. Burned pads are painful and completely preventable.
