I made a little page with tips on how to keep your dog safe in hot weather! I wanted something cute that people would want to share to help spread safety info. Scan QR code in the image or visit: dogsummer.carrd.co βοΈπΆ

I live in the desert and some people have no clue how hot asphalt and even concrete sidewalks can be. Hate to see a dog dancing because their paws are literally burning.
It's a simple test - touch the surface with your own hand for a few seconds. If it's too hot for you, it's too hot for them.
Oh what a fantastic resource! I had to take care of an elderly dog over a heatwave once, and I used pretty much all of these to keep her comfy. Cool washclothes draped on the belly were her favorite, and I put a wet Tshirt in the fridge, then put it on her, since she was used to it, and that helped!
