🚫🐾 PLEASE LEAVE YOUR DOGS AT HOME THIS WEEKEND 🐾🚫
We know the Art Festival is a fun event to stroll through—but with temps expected to hit 90–95°F, it’s not safe for your dogs. Here’s why:
🔥 Asphalt temperatures can reach 140°F or higher—hot enough to burn paw pads in seconds.
🥵 Heat stroke is a serious risk in this kind of weather, especially for short-nosed breeds, older pups, and those with thick coats. Even a short walk can be dangerous.
💦 Festivals can be overstimulating and lack shade or access to cool water—making it an all-around rough environment for your furry friend.
As much as we love seeing your pups out and about, this is one weekend where it’s kinder (and safer) to leave them in the A/C at home.
💙 Keep them cool, keep them safe.
