With temperatures set to rise again this week we just wanted to re share our top tips for keeping your animals cool in the heat.
If you have a routine appointment booked with us and you feel it is too hot to bring them please give us a call and we will happily reschedule for you.
It’s going to be a scorcher this week! Let’s keep our furry friends safe and cool.
🌿 Top tips:
• Make sure they have plenty of fresh water and shade.
• Skip the walks — they won’t mind! Or head out early morning or at dusk but always check the pavement with your hand first.
• Frozen toys and treats can help keep them entertained and chilled.
• Never, ever leave them in a hot car — not even for a minute
⚠️ Watch for signs of heatstroke, which include heavy panting, vomiting, collapse, muscle tremors, fast heartbeat and excessive drooling.
If you’re worried, move them into a cool room or a shadey area and gently pour cool water over them (not icy), and call us straight away on 01384 252817.
Stay safe and give your pets a cuddle from us!
