The Hot Dog Days of SummerAs the weather heats up, it's important to remain aware of how the heat affects your pup. Heat exhaustion in dogs can lead to serious and potentially fatal conditions such as heat stroke and cardiac arrest. Fortunately, there are some simple things that you can do to protect your dog from the dangers of heat exhaustion. Signs of Heat Exhaustion
Treatment of Heat Exhaustion If you believe your dog is suffering from heat exhaustion, seek veterinary care immediately even if your dog’s condition does not seem serious. Cool water can be used to begin to decrease his body temperature during the trip to the veterinarian. Towels can be soaked in cool water and used to cover your dog. You can also place the towels between his legs and across his neck. . This may make the situation worse.
