๐พโ๏ธ HEATWAVE PSA: KEEP YOUR BOXERS SAFE! โ๏ธ๐พ
๐จ ITโS HOT AS HECK OUT THERE AND YOUR DOG CANโT TELL YOU WHEN ITโS TOO MUCH! ๐จ
With this heatwave, please keep your pets, especially Boxers, safely at home and out of the heat. Boxers can overheat quickly, and heatstroke can become life-threatening in a very short amount of time.
๐พ PLEASE: ๐ ๐๐
* ๐ Keep your dog indoors in air conditioning whenever possible.
* ๐ก๏ธ Avoid walks and exercise during the hottest parts of the day.
* ๐พ Remember that pavement can burn sensitive paw pads.
* ๐ง Provide plenty of fresh, cool water.
* ๐ NEVER leave your dog in a parked car โ not even for a few minutes.
* ๐
If you must walk, go early in the morning or later in the evening when temperatures are cooler.
โ ๏ธ Heavy panting, excessive drooling, weakness, vomiting, confusion, stumbling, or collapse can be signs of heatstroke. If you suspect heatstroke, seek veterinary emergency care immediately.
โค๏ธ A hot day at home is boring. Heatstroke can be deadly.
Keep those Boxers cool, safe and inside!
๐ถโ๏ธ Their only job today is to stay cool and be couch potatoes! โค๏ธ
