As we have seen over the past several years, our weather patterns are changing. With this change also comes more severe weather in areas that are not used to either being colder in the winter months or hotter during the summer months. But here we are experiencing some of the hottest heat in years.
We can’t change the weather, but we certainly can put things in place to help protect our family and our pets from heat stroke and dehydration. Here are some of the symptoms to look out for both you and your pets.
Signs of Heat Stroke in Your Pet(s):
Excessive panting and shortness of breath
Excessive thirst
Disorientation, stumbling, or weakness
Vomiting
Increased pulse and heartbeat
Signs of Heat Stroke for You:
Heavy sweating
Dizziness
Weak and rapid pulse
Headache
Nausea
Protecting Your Pet(s):
Should any of you be experiencing the symptoms listed above, it’s time to get inside a cool building and out of the sun and drink plenty of water.
With high temperatures getting in the triple digits, you want to both stay out of the heat until it cools down. The best time to go outside is early in the morning or later in the evening.
Stay apprised of the temperature and if it looks to be triple-digit weather it’s best for you both to stay inside where it’s cool.
Keep both yourself and your pets inside during the hottest part of the day.
If you don’t have air conditioning there are many cooling stations throughout your city such as libraries, schools, or shopping malls.
Stay safe this summer.
