It’s that time of year again! So keep them safe and cool.
Remember that dogs don’t release heat the same way we do and it doesn’t take much for a dog’s body temperature to reach abnormal levels. When it does, irreparable injury to major organs and death may quickly result. On our hot summer days the worst place for a dog to be is in a hot parked car. If they could choose between a ride to the store and irreversible damage, I believe they would stay home. Do them a favor and keep them comfortably cool!
