Keeping your Dog Comfortable in the Heat

Hot weather can quickly deplete your dog of all energy. If it’s an overly hot day, make sure you keep your dog indoors in a nice cool place. If you don’t have air conditioning, set up a fan on the floor and aim it towards your dog’s bed or area where your dog likes to nap. This will help keep him cool. Keep your dog’s bed in a cool part of the house such as a basement or on cool linoleum flooring where it’s cooler for your dog to lay down. Make sure you have a couple of water bowls filled with fresh cool water. Offer your dog cool treats such as ice cubes, frozen fruit, or dog safe ice cream to help him stay cool as well. If your dog is overheated, panting heavily, or appears lethargic, contact your vet Crown Point, IN right away.
