Great Ways to Stay Cool
- Provide your pet with a kiddie pool to splash in! The pool makes a fun, cool place to play outside!
- Make your own homemade doggie pupsicles or ice cream by following these recipes, or by freezing your pup’s favorite treat in an ice cube tray. It’s a nice treat and it will help them to keep cool.
- Most dogs like to swim. If yours does, find a nearby pet-friendly beach and take them for a dip! Swimming is a great way to exercise your dog without causing them to overheat.
Always…
- Always have a cool place for your dog to rest. If they’re outside for an extended period of time, make sure there is shade. Inside they will probably find their own cool place like the tile floor, but you can give them a cooled towel to lie on too.
- Always have water available wherever you go! At home, make sure your dogs water dish is full and fresh at all times. Make sure you bring water on long walks and car rides as well. Don’t forget to have a place for them to get a drink when they’re outside.
Never…
- Never shave your dog! You might think they’re too hot with all that fur, but it actually regulates their body temperature by providing a sort of insulation. Not to mention, cutting their fur short could cause them to get sunburned outside.
- Never exercise your dog if it’s too hot. If you would be uncomfortable exercising due to the temperature, they would be too. Instead, take walks in the morning or evening when it’s cooler, or allow them some swim time.
