Summer is on. Now it's the time to enjoy lukewarm rays of the sun; blooming flowers and cool wind under the shelter of trees. Rays of the sun are very much helpful in raising the level of Vitamin D. But have you ever thought that what are the effects of this summer on your pet dog? They need special care; as summer has a great impact on dog's life. Its UV rays are responsible for causing skin cancer and other skin-related diseases. As we know that dogs don't sweat, they dissipate heat through sweat glands which are present in their paws. It is very difficult for dogs to release their heat; for this, they pant. And if they are unsuccessful in lowering their body temperature they may become hyper and can be dangerous for them. That's the reason that utmost care of dogs should be taken during hot summer days.

 

You are the only one on whom your dog can rely on. So, it is your responsibility to take proper care of your cutie pie. Here are some of the tips that will help you to fulfill all the requirements of your dog in this hot weather.

 

Be smart enough to handle serious situations

 

You should be alert while taking your pet outside in sun. As we get exhausted due to heat; in the same way, your puppy or the grown up may also face heat exhaustion. So always apply sunscreen creams on nose and ears of your pets. This will give them a cooling effect.

Groom your pet

 

Do you like thick clothing in summer? No. Similarly, your pet too, hates excess fur in the hot season. So this is the best time to cut down their excess fur for making them feel cool and comfortable. Don't remove the entire coat, maintain such length that is appropriate for their health and looks. However, some of the furs will shed naturally due to heat.
