What are the signs of heat stroke in dogs?
Signs of heat stroke include lethargy, uncoordinated movements, vomiting, diarrhea, and excessive panting.
How can I help my dog cool itself off when it's hot out?
Understand your dog’s natural protective measures against heat. Leave your dog’s coat intact—it protects the skin from UV rays and extreme temperatures (both hot and cold). Let your dog pant—this is how dogs sweat and cool their body temperatures.
Should dogs always wear a coat outside during the winter?
Dogs (with the exception of a few breeds) are born with an incredible natural coat, and many will not need an additional one if the temperature is above 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
