#summerpetcaretips

What if your doggy does overheat? Soak his body with cool water - not cold - concentrating on his head, neck, armpits and between the hind legs and gently wet ears and paw pads. If possible take his temperature - a dog’s temperature should be between 101 and 102.5

Not only will your pooch look stylish, they will massively help in the hot weather. Invest in cool coats for walking or cooling bandanas.

Our next hot weather tip? Provide cool mats inside the home or if crated within the crate. Damp towels can also be used for them to lie on.
