In some parts of the country, hot weather turns into hotter weather, which turns into positively sweltering, insufferable heat. While you might be able to withstand it for several minutes, do you know how hot is too hot for dogs?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heat stroke, also known as hyperthermia, can occur in any hot environment. This ranges from irresponsible dog owners&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/barking-news\/totally-legal-break-dog-hot-car-animal-protection-laws-for-leaving-dogs-locked-in-a-hot-car\">leaving their dogs in hot&nbsp;cars<\/a>, to not supplying enough drinking water or shade for their dog when outdoors in the summer heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dog&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/vcahospitals.com\/know-your-pet\/taking-your-pets-temperature#:~:text=Normal%20body%20temperature%20for%20dogs,your%20pet%20to%20your%20veterinarian.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">body temperatures<\/a> are naturally higher than humans&#8217;.

Pet owners should always have cool water available for their pups, especially on a hot day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some dog breeds are more prone to overheating than others, like dogs with extra fluffy fur coats (i.e., huskies and malamutes). Wrinkly dogs with brachycephalic airway syndrome (dogs with squished snouts like pugs and bulldogs) are at even higher risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>What do I do if my dog gets a heat stroke?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dog-water-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"how to trick your dog into drinking water\" class=\"wp-image-15701\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dog-water-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dog-water-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dog-water-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dog-water.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dog shows the aforementioned symptoms of heat stroke, take them to the vet as soon as possible.

You just need to take the right precautions when the temperatures are high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>If your pet&nbsp;<em>must<\/em> be outdoors, provide access to plenty of water and shaded areas. Add ice cubes so the water stays cold for longer, and give them the option to go back inside where there&#8217;s air conditioning.<\/li><li>On extra-hot or humid days, schedule your walks in the early morning before the sun has come all the way up. Wait for the sun to set for evening walks when the outside temperature drops. The hours between 10 a.m.-4 p.m. are going to be the hottest. <ul><li>Note: Don&#8217;t force your dog walker to take your dog for regular-length walks during the hotter hours. Instead, ask them to take them out just to do their business, then go inside for some playtime. <\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Do not EVER leave your dog in a hot, parked car. There are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animallaw.info\/topic\/table-state-laws-protect-animals-left-parked-vehicles\">31 states that have some sort of &#8220;hot car&#8221; law<\/a> protecting dogs locked in cars. Some of them will grant civic immunity to people who break in to rescue a distressed animal from a vehicle.<\/li><li>Test the ground temperature by placing your hand on the ground. If it&#8217;s too hot for you, it&#8217;s likely too hot for your dog&#8217;s paw pads.<\/li><li>Carry extra water for you and your dog during&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/product\/hiking-with-your-dog\">long hikes<\/a>&nbsp;or walks in warm temperatures.<\/li><li>If your dog typically wears a muzzle, leave it off. Muzzles restrict their ability to pant. Dogs need to pant in order to keep cool.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3>How to cool down a dog<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/soaked-wet-long-coated-dog-opens-mouth-at-water-streams-on-1044056-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"summer activities for dogs\" class=\"wp-image-12117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/soaked-wet-long-coated-dog-opens-mouth-at-water-streams-on-1044056-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/soaked-wet-long-coated-dog-opens-mouth-at-water-streams-on-1044056-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/soaked-wet-long-coated-dog-opens-mouth-at-water-streams-on-1044056-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/soaked-wet-long-coated-dog-opens-mouth-at-water-streams-on-1044056.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>If you have the outdoor space, you can keep your dogs cool by getting an inexpensive kiddie pool for them to dip their paws in on a hot summer day with high temperatures. Dogs sweat through their paws, so just standing in cool water can help regulate their body temperature.<\/li><li>Instead of laying on hot pavement, get your dog a cooling mat or elevated dog bed to rest on next to a fresh water bowl.<\/li><li>You can also have them wear a bandana over their chest that is soaked in cold water to keep them from overheating. Some come with pockets to place ice packs in.<\/li><li>Pet parents can make DIY frozen treats like these.<\/li><li>Get your hot dog a cooling vest.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And if your pooch loves to play in the water, he&#8217;s going to LOVE having his very own kiddie pool or sprinkler during a heatwave. You can also have them wear a bandana over their chest that is soaked in cold water to keep them from overheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Water activities are one of the best ways to keep your dog cool in the summertime. If you go boating, to the beach, to the pool, or to a lake, don&#8217;t forget to practice <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/product\/safety-and-style-make-a-woofderful-combo\">basic water safety<\/a> and consider having your dog wear a <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/dogs\/10-reasons-your-dog-needs-a-life-jacket\">life vest<\/a> for flotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Keep Your Dog Safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/OH_Heat-Stroke-Infographic.png\" alt=\"how hot is too hot for dogs infographic\" class=\"wp-image-15380\" width=\"834\" height=\"1814\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Please don&#8217;t leave your dog outside in extreme heat.
