Don’t forget that when you’re walking your dog this summer, they don’t have the same protection on their feet that you do. 🐾

Check the temperature before you head outside. If it’s too hot, keep walks short and stick to grassy areas, avoiding pavement and asphalt when possible. Do your best to take long walks during the cooler parts of the day such as early morning or evening. 🌙

And remember, protect those paws! Winter weather staples like Mushers Secret or Bag Balm are a good way to help moisturize, heal, and protect paw pads in the summer, too.
