Panting can progress to distressed or noisy breathing as the heatstroke worsens, restlessness or agitation, pacing, seeking shade or water.
Offer them small sips of water, do not force them to drink.
Seeking shade or water is one of the signs of heatstroke in pets.
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.
Restrict exercise on warm days, pack a water bottle on walks.
