Well it seems as though winter has left and summer has begun with out any kind of spring. My tips this week are going to be about keeping your poo’s cool in the warm weather.

• Make sure your pup has plenty of water. This is especially important for young or small dogs because just a little time spent in the sun panting can cause them to dehydrate.
• Try to keep your poo in the shade as much as possible when outside. The temperature may not be too hot but the sun on their coats can create a lot of heat.
• Homemade frozen dog treats! They are easy enough to make by placing small pieces of fruit in an ice cube tray and freezing, can definitely make an sweltering day better for your Poo.
• Putting sunscreen on your pups nose, especially if it’s a light color can help prevent their nose from getting a burn!

Otto is more of an indoor dog, but when it is this warm out and he goes out he needs a lot of water. Which then causes him to go have to go out more, so be aware of how much water they are taking in and putting out to keep them healthy.
