Keep these tips in mind as the temperature starts to rise. We want to make sure our furry friends are enjoying time outdoors safely this summer. 🐶☀️
🔹 Give your dog a shady spot to hang out on hot days or keep them inside where there’s air-conditioning. Dog houses are not good shelters in the summer because they can trap heat.
🔹 Fill a child-size wading pool with fresh water for your dog to cool off in.
🔹 Avoid exposing your dog to hot asphalt or sand for any prolonged period; it can burn their paws.
🔹 Protect your dog against sunburn. Dogs, especially those with short hair, white fur, and pink skin, can get sunburned. Limit your dog’s exposure during the day and apply sunscreen to their ears, nose, and coat before going outside.
