Summer heat affects our pets differently than it affects us... and understanding the science can help keep them safe.

Did you know dogs have very few sweat glands and rely primarily on panting to regulate their body temperature? When temperatures and humidity rise, that natural cooling system becomes much less effective, increasing the risk of heat stress and heatstroke.

We've put together a new article exploring the fascinating biology behind how dogs and other pets stay cool, why some animals are at greater risk, and simple ways you can help protect them during this summer's heat.

🐾 Happy to help!

We recently provided these dog beds to Proud Rescue, a no-kill rescue working to expand its efforts and help more dogs in need. A comfortable place to rest can make a big difference for dogs as they wait for their forever homes.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to support the important work they do. ❤️

Spring brings more than just sunshine—there’s a lot happening at ground level that can catch a dog’s attention. From caterpillars like the Orgyia leucostigma to bees, frogs, and other small critters, curious dogs may sniff, mouth, or chase things that can sometimes cause irritation.

Most encounters are harmless, but it’s worth paying attention to behavior after outdoor play. Signs like drooling, pawing at the mouth, or mild swelling can indicate your dog got into something irritating.

It’s not about limiting their time outside—just being aware of what they might come across this time of year.
