Good morning Folks! ☀️
I have a service announcement. Though you may think it would be silly to have to announce it, it is something I see every summer and it is brutal watching it happen.
We are our pets first defense, they rely on us to make good and informed decisions for them.
Coming up, starting on Saturday, the weather will turn. Extreme temperatures and humidity!! ☀️ 🥵
I am constantly reminded how many folks don’t realize your dogs cannot sweat appropriately to cool their bodies.
Exposed sidewalks will be about 10-30sec hotter the the air temperature. This will burn your dogs feet severely! Walk them EARLY & LATE. Keep them in air conditioning or at the least with a fan where they spend their time. Keep a FULL BOWL of water 💦 DO NOT take them for a ride just so they are forced to sit in a car and wait for you to have fun.
Your dog will follow you into a burning building! Of course they want to go places with you! But that doesn’t mean they should. Keep them home and comfortable. They will be happy to see you when you return 🩵
Thank you
