Jun 22

June is not suppose to be this hot!  We need to be more aware that the high temperatures we are experiencing  can be very dangerous for our four legged friends.  The most common hot weather hazards include heat stroke, dehydration and sunburn.   Plan  your long walks and strenuous exercise for the cooler times of the day, such as the morning or evening  hours.  If you are outdoors for extended periods of time, find a shady place for your furkids, and provide plenty of fresh, cool water. I have heard that you can even apply sunscreen.  Check with your veterinarian. 

Fourth of July is coming up soon.  Remember that fireworks and other loud noises can frighten your furkids.   My husband and I try to stay home that night, with our furry ones so that they are not as frightened.
