Helpful hints for the heat!


As the weather warms up, we'd like to share some helpful weather tips that we found on vetmedicine.com. It is really important to be aware that you need to look out for these things--we don't want our dogs to get sick!


Below is a link to the article:




It is pretty long, but we have pulled a few of the hints that we think are MOST important!


  • Avoid heat stroke- don't leave your dog in the car!

  • Be careful when your dog is near water- not all dogs can swim!

  • If you are jogging with your dog- make sure you take frequent water breaks!

  • If you are traveling with your dog- make sure you find a local vet in case of emergency!

Many thanks to vetmedicine.com for providing us with all these helpful hints--take care of your dogs!
