Temperatures are rising up, and so are the number of dogs suffering from heat stroke which are being admitted at the clinic.
Please be careful! This is a very life treatening condition.
Avoid taking your dogs out for a long walk, or even leaving them in the car or a hot room. With these temperature, this also includes balconies, or gardens!
If you re coming to Gozo from Malta with your pet, avoid travelling during the day as well.
Bracycephalic dogs (french bulldogs, english bulldogs, pugs), obese dogs, long haired dogs, young and also senior dogs are most at risk.
Finally, if your dog does suffer from a heat stroke, it is considered as an emergency and you should contact your vet as soon as possible.
