The UK gets a glimpse of sunshine and we immediately forget how to act🌞however on a serious note…
Even if your dog loves being outside, hot weather can be dangerous for them. Dogs can overheat much faster than we do, and pavements can become hot enough to burn their paws.
🐾Walk early in the morning or later in the evening when temperatures are lower.
💧Always take water and offer regular drink breaks.
🌳Stick to shaded routes where possible.
🔥 If the pavement is too hot for the back of your hand for 7 seconds, it’s too hot for your dog’s paws.
🚨Watch for signs of heatstroke, including excessive panting, drooling, lethargy, vomiting, or collapsing.
Remember, preventing heatstroke is much easier than treating it, so always put your dog’s safety before their usual routines🐶
