YNP #097: Hot Weather Activities for Your Dog

Just about every dog is going to have some trouble with the hot weather. For some dogs even a slight elevation in temperature will find them seeking out the shade and wanting shorter walks. The heat itself can be tiring for a dog so it tends to shorten walks and activity. This will result in us having to find creative ways to entertain our dog and burn some energy. For this episode I reached right into my Enrichment Database (available with YOUR Perfect Puppy) to find some activities that are perfect for a hot day. I have you covered if you want to play with water, sit in the shade with a frozen treat, or stay inside and avoid the heat altogether. Enjoy! In this episode I talk about: Dogs that are sensitive to the heat. How to recognize heat stroke in a dog. Different types of water activities to try with your pup. Different types of frozen treats to make for your pup. Indoor activities to avoid the heat all together . Press play and enjoy!
