How to Keep Your Pets Cool During Summer
It is so important you keep your pets cool during the warmer summer months. Unlike humans, pets can’t sweat. Humans are able to sweat to keep themselves cool throughout summer, however, pets like cats and dogs are unable to do this. For them, it is like walking around with a thick winter coat on all the time. Dogs can suffer heatstroke in a matter of minutes. They rely on their panting and releasing heat through their paw pads/nose to keep themselves cool. This is why it is vital for us to help keep our pets cool throughout the summer months.
