Make sure your pet always has access to a cool shaded area, both indoors and outside. Restrict exercise on warm days. Dogs should be walked early in the morning or later in the evening to avoid the hottest part of the day. Pack a water bottle on walks. Remember, hot pavements can burn paws, if it’s too hot to hold your hand on, it’s too hot for your pet to walk on. Never leave pets in a car or a hot room. Ensure your pet always has drinking water available, adding ice can help keep it cool. Ensure your pet is regularly groomed if this is advised for their breed.
