☀️🐾 Pet Summer Safety Checklist 🐾☀️
Keep your furry friend happy, healthy, and cool this summer! Don't Forget to visit Dr. Bae for all your pet needs.
✅ Vaccinations
💉 Stay current on all vaccines, especially if your pet visits parks, groomers, or daycares.
✅ Hydration
🦴 Always have fresh, clean water available—especially on walks or trips.
✅ Shade & Cool Areas
🏖️ Avoid prolonged sun exposure. Provide shade or cool spots indoors.
✅ Limit Outdoor Time
🚫 Don’t walk pets during peak heat (10am–4pm). Early morning or evening is best.
✅ Paw Check
🔥 Test pavement with your hand—if it's too hot for you, it’s too hot for paws!
✅ Parasite Protection
🦟 Make sure flea, tick, and heartworm preventatives are up to date.
✅ Travel Prep
🚗 Secure pets in carriers or seatbelt harnesses, and never leave them alone in a hot car.
✅ Grooming
✂️ Keep your pet’s coat clean and trimmed—but avoid shaving double-coated breeds.
✅ Exercise Caution
💪 Don’t overexert pets in the heat. Watch for signs of heat exhaustion (excessive panting, drooling, weakness).
✅ ID Tags & Microchips
📛 Make sure all info is up to date in case your pet gets lost.
