Tips for caring for animals in the summertime heat
The Humane Society urges pet owners to be mindful of their animals’ well-being as they take them to different places throughout the summer.
Pet owners should never leave animals alone in their vehicles, even if the windows are open, according to the group’s website. Animals left in cars for long periods of time can experience severe organ damage or death.
Pet owners should limit outside exercise and adjust the intensity and duration of exercise during summer months, the website stated. Early morning or late afternoon are the best times to take animals outside.
Animals should have access to water while playing outside, according to the group. Besides water, owners can make pup-sicles, which can be done with peanut butter, fruits or other treats.
The Humane Society reminds pet owners to look out for symptoms related to heat stroke, which include rapid heartbeat, lots of panting, their eyes glazing over, disorientation, and excessive thirst.
If a pet is experiencing those symptoms, take it out of direct heat and give them ice and water before taking them to see a veterinarian.
“Animals that are at particular risk for heat stroke if they are very old, very young, overweight, not conditioned to prolonged exercise, or have heart or respiratory disease,” according to the Humane Society.
