🚨 Heat Stroke Warning For Greyhounds! 🚨

Greyhounds are extra sensitive to heat, due to their thin coats and low body fat 🐾☀️.

In warm weather, avoid walks during peak heat 🌡️ (especially over 75°F/24°C), always provide fresh water💧and never leave them in a parked car 🚗❌.

Signs of heat stroke include heavy panting 😓, drooling 🥵, weakness or collapse. If you notice any of these, move them to a cool spot immediately and call your vet 📞👩‍⚕️.

Keep your greyhound cool and safe this summer! 🐶❤️
