Avoid the hottest parts of the day, ideally wait until the evening or early in the morning. A dog will not die from missing a walk but one walk in hot weather could be fatal🚗 If you need to travel, use aircon if you have it or ensure good ventilation with open windows❌Never leave any animals in a vehicle. If you see an animal in distress in a vehicle call 999🖐️Test the tarmac with your hand, if it's too hot for you it's too hot for your pet’s paws🦊 Please also spare a thought for wild animals and place bowls of water outsideSIGNS OF HEATSTROKE:Initial signs:⚠️ Heavy panting⚠️ Drooling ⚠️ Restlessness/Agitation⚠️ Bright red or very pale gums⚠️ Increased heart rate⚠️ Vomiting or diarrhoeaProgressing to:⚠️ Lack of co-ordination ⚠️ Lethargy⚠️ Vacant or distant behaviour⚠️ Weakness or collapse ⚠️ SeizuresWHAT TO DO:If your dog shows signs of heatstroke, act immediately: stop exercise, move them to the shade, and start cooling them down with water before transporting them to a vet. It is vital to ‘COOL FIRST, TRANSPORT SECOND’ to prevent fatal organ damage.The 4-Step Emergency Action Plan1. Stop & Move * Halt all activity immediately and move your dog to a shaded, well-ventilated area. 2. Actively Cool* Young, healthy dogs: Pour cool (not freezing) water over their body, or immerse them in shallow, cool water (like a stream), avoiding their head. * Older dogs or those with health issues: Spray cool water over them and create a breeze with a fan/aircon. Never submerge these dogs fully.* Important: Do not put wet towels directly over a dog, as this can trap heat and raise their body temperature. Lay them on top of a wet towel instead. 3. Hydrate Safely * Offer them small, frequent sips of cool water. Do not force them to drink, as they could inhale it. 4.
