Always be sure to take along plenty of water for the both of you when you go out for a long hike, walk or run with your dog. Stop for water breaks, maybe around every mile or when you see that your dog is panting hard, allowing your dog to drink just enough to quench her thirst each time. Don’t allow her to gulp large amounts of water at one time, as this can lead stomach upset or bloating. You can also use a bottle with a pop-up spout, so that you can control the amount of water your dog is drinking. One of the more practical products available for dogs is a water bottle cap that releases small amounts of water when the dog licks the roller ball in the spout. After a period of cooling down and rehydrating with water -- small amounts at a time so he doesn’t gulp too much down -- feed your dog her normal meal.
