IT'S SO HOT OUTSIDE!

HEAT STROKE KILLS TOO MANY DOGS EVERY YEAR

Please be mindful of when you walk your dog. A dog's normal body temperature is 101-102 degrees AND they are wearing a fur coat! We are 98.6 degrees and wear shorts and t shirts. Please DO NOT walk your dog for long distances on hot and humid days even if they are accustomed to walking many miles a day. Dogs want to please us and will continue to walk even though they are overheated. If they are lagging behind you or panting, please STOP and take them home. Just brining water for them is not enough. Dogs can't sweat like we do so it is more difficult for them to keep themselves from overheating.  If you would be too hot walking outside wearing your winter coat, imagine how hot they must feel. 

Please DO NOT leave your pets in your car. A cracked window or open sunroof or parking in the shade is not enough to prevent heatstroke. On a sunny day, when it's 70 degrees outside, the temperature inside a car is 100 degrees. When it's 80 degrees outside, the car is 120 degrees. When it's 90 degrees outside, the car is over 140 degrees! The brain sends signals to an overheated dog to move to a cooler area: shade, indoors, etc. A dog trapped in a hot car can't do that. If the body temperature stays high enough for long enough, all body systems are affected. If the damage is too much, despite aggressive treatment, many pets will die. 

Please visit our Pet Health Library for more information on heat stroke.
