Seasonal Tip

Heat Stroke — It takes just
minutes in the summer sun
for the inside of a car to reach
into the 30's and above, even
with the windows open.  Do
not leave your animal in the
car if you are not in it - even
a couple of minutes can
prove fatal.

Also, remember that it's
great when your dog
accompanies you for your
summer activities, but fresh
cold water is essential.  Dogs
quickly dehydrate in hot
weather, as we do, but they
can't ask for water.  If you
suspect your pet is suffering
from heat exhaustion/stroke
seek veterinary attention
immediately!
