This week, the kindest walk is no walk at all. 🚫

With temperatures reaching up to 38°C in some places, pavements can become hot enough to burn paws in seconds. 🌡️

Your dog doesn’t need a walk that badly. They need you to keep them safe.

‼️ KEEP YOUR PETS SAFE IN HOT WEATHER ☀️

Heatstroke is a life-threatening emergency that can cause seizures, organ failure, internal bleeding, coma, and even death.

Dogs are especially at risk during warm weather, particularly:
• Flat-faced breeds
• Overweight dogs
• Giant breeds
• Thick-coated dogs
• Very young and senior dogs

✅ Walk early morning or late evening only
❌ Avoid walks between 12pm–4pm
✅ Provide plenty of fresh water and shade
✅ Offer cooling treats such as ice pops
❌ Never leave a dog in a car, even for a few minutes

🐱 Cats already know exactly what to do, find the coolest spot in the house and sleep through the heat 😊

If in doubt, skip the walk. Your pet's safety comes first 🐾

Share to make aware .

Temperatures are peaking Wednesday and Thursday. By this point , the temperature of tarmac could easily reach 65--75°C .

A cooked chicken thigh needs to be at 74C +

DO NOT WALK YOUR DOGS ON TARMAC IN THE DAY .
WALK THEM EARLY IN THE MORNING AND LATE AT NIGHT .

KEEP THEM ON THE GRASS ! .

Your dogs paws do not need to be the same temperature as a cooked chicken thigh .

If they do a wee up your fridge freezer , it’s only wee.
Their health is more important than the inconvenience of cleaning it up .

You can pour boiling water on weeds and it'll kill them as effectively as roundup.

Kaf will be at this vintage market with a 'pop up shop' crammed with all things vintage from jewellery, home wares, silver, crystal and much more.
Huge thank you to all at Solas Eco Garden Shop for their kindness. A lovely venue for a day out and they are extremely dog friendly 🐕. As always, we ask you to support those that support Kaf.
