Guidelines for a healthy dog summer

Dogs are vulnerable to certain health risks during the warmer months, but with proper care, they can enjoy the season safely. Here are some guidelines to keep your dogs healthy in the summer:

1. Hydration:

   • Provide fresh and clean water at all times, both indoors and outdoors.

   • Carry water and a portable bowl during walks or outings to prevent dehydration.

   • Consider using ice cubes or frozen treats as a refreshing way to keep your dog hydrated.

2. Avoiding heatstroke:

   • Never leave your dog inside a parked car, even for a few minutes, as temperatures can rise rapidly.

   • Provide shade in your backyard or patio, and limit outdoor activities during the hottest hours of the day.

   • Use cooling products like damp towels, cooling mats, or misting fans to help lower your dog's body temperature.

3. Protecting paws and skin:

   • Walk your dog on cooler surfaces such as grass or shaded paths to prevent paw pad burns from hot pavement or sand.

   • Apply pet-safe sunscreen to exposed areas, especially if your dog has a thin or light-colored coat.

   • Consider using protective booties to shield paws from hot surfaces, sharp objects, or chemicals.

4. Preventing insect bites and parasites:

   • Use non-toxic flea and tick preventives to safeguard your dog against pests.

   • Avoid walking your dog in areas with high grass or dense vegetation where ticks and insects thrive.

   • Check your dog's fur and skin regularly for ticks, fleas, or any signs of allergic reactions to insect bites.

5. Exercise and activity:

   • Engage in physical activities with your dog during cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late evening.

   • Provide mental stimulation indoors or in shaded areas, such as puzzle toys or training sessions.

   • Avoid overexertion and be mindful of your dog's limits, as they may be more prone to exhaustion in hot weather.

6. Water safety:

   • Supervise your dog around swimming pools, lakes, or any body of water to prevent accidents or drowning.

   • Consider using a dog life jacket if your dog is not a strong swimmer or during boat outings.

   • Rinse your dog's coat thoroughly after swimming in chlorinated or saltwater to remove any residue.

7. Traveling and vacations:

   • If traveling with your dog, ensure their safety and comfort by providing proper ventilation and regular breaks.

   • Carry your dog's health records, medications, and identification tags, including your contact information.

   • Research pet-friendly accommodations, attractions, and nearby veterinary services at your destination.

By following these guidelines, you can help ensure that your beloved canine companion stays healthy, happy, and safe during the summer season.
