It seems as though the warm weather has arrived… at least for the moment:) Our dogs are going to be feeling the temperatures rising faster than us. Keeping them cool, hydrated and safe from heatstroke is crucial and life saving. Just think how you would feel wearing a fur coat on even a warm (70 degree) day in the sun, on a hike or worse….sitting in the car!
Here are some great articles on how to avoid heatstroke, signs of heatstroke and what to do if you are concerned… that your dog is showing symptoms. Additionally there is photo of a table showing how quickly it heats up in a car and a photo of my own dog jumping in the water after a hike! Hope this is helpful!! We love your dogs like they are our own at Off Road Paws!! We are here for dog walking, dog running or dog hiking early in the mornings or later evenings when it is cooler or for a swim anytime!!!
