Keeping Pets Safe and Healthy during Summer's Dog Days

The three "H"s of summer – haze, heat and humidity -- are back and will take their toll on pets as well as people in the weeks ahead. Be alert to read related news.

"Our dogs suffer from the heat and humidity, just as we do," says Traci Simo of Canine Company. "We need to take steps to keep them safe from common summer health problems like heat exhaustion, dehydration and parasites." She offers these tips for keeping the family dog healthy, even in extreme heat.

Preventing Heat Exhaustion and Dehydration.
"Although puppies and older dogs are at greatest risk, any pet can fall victim," says Simo. To prevent these problems:

Protecting from Skin Irritation and Parasites.
"A pet's coat provides protection from sun and parasites. It also creates a layer of insulation to keep cool air near the skin," says Simo. "That's why coat care is so important in the summer."

"When it comes to summer heat, if you are feeling uncomfortable, you should assume your dog is, too," says Simo. "But with just a few precautions like these, you can keep your pet safe and comfortable all season."
