It is very important to make sure your animals are safe from the extreme temperatures of summer. Here are some tips to keep your animals safe:
- Never leave any animal or child in a hot car.
- Make sure your pets have shelter, shade and unlimited fresh water when outside.
- Try to take walks during the cooler hours of the day because the hot asphalt can burn your pets paws.
- Pets need somewhere to cool off just like we do. Spending too much time in the sun can cause sun burn and issues for your pet so it is best to offer them a spot to cool down.
