☀️🐾 Summer is just around the corner, and warmer temperatures can pose serious risks for our furry friends.

Heat-related illnesses can develop quickly, especially in brachycephalic breeds (French Bulldogs, Pugs, Bulldogs), thick coated dogs, and dark coated dogs. As the temperatures rise, make sure your pets have plenty of fresh water, access to shade, and never leave them unattended in a vehicle even for a few minutes.

Remember: if the pavement is too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for their paws. 🐕🔥

Stay safe, stay cool, and enjoy a healthy summer with your pets! 💙

🐶☀️ NYC summer is right around the corner, and while all dogs can be affected by heat, brachycephalic (flat-faced) breeds like Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Pugs, Boston Terriers, and Boxers are at especially high risk for overheating and heatstroke because they can’t cool themselves as efficiently through panting.

In this reel, our Criticalist, Dr. Griego Valles, shares a few simple tips to help keep your pets safe as temperatures rise:

💧 Always provide fresh water
🌳 Seek shade whenever possible
🚶 Walk during the cooler morning and evening hours
🏠 Take frequent breaks in air-conditioned spaces
🔥 Avoid hot pavement and strenuous activity during peak heat

Watch for signs of overheating, including excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, difficulty breathing, or collapse. Heatstroke is a medical emergency and requires immediate veterinary attention.

If you suspect your pet is experiencing a heat related emergency, seek veterinary care immediately. If you’re in the NYC area, emergency care is available through Animal Medical Center (AMC), BluePearl, Veterinary Emergency Group (VEG), or your nearest emergency veterinary hospital.

Stay safe, stay hydrated, and help your pets beat the heat this summer. ☀️
