How to walk your dog in extreme heat

If it is too hot outside, a walk under the scorching rays of the sun should be moved to a cooler time of day.

For example, walk your pet early in the morning and late in the evening.

At this time of day, the air temperature is more suitable for walking with an animal.

If it's still very hot outside, don't walk for more than half an hour.

To keep your pet comfortable and safe, be sure to provide access to a cool place and water.

Give your dog access to shady places where the pet can hide from the scorching sun.

Make sure your dog always has fresh, cool water, both indoors and outdoors.

Limit physical activity during walks.

If your pet feels unwell, contact your veterinarian immediately.
