Here are some tips to prevent pet hazards. All the tips are available here
Stave Off Sunburn
The dog days of summer pose danger for our faithful friends. Short-haired, close-shaven, and light-colored pets are prone to sunburns. The tender skin of snouts, noses, ears, and tails is also exposed to the UV rays. Rub on doggie sunblock (at least SPF 15 in strength) about 15 minutes before a long stretch in the sun. Make sure your pet has a shady spot to hang out, too.
Keep Hot Dogs Cool
Heat can be hazardous to your pet’s health. Be sure she has plenty of water. Choose outside bowls that won’t tip and fill them often. On walks, bring a water bowl and spray bottle for cooling drinks and showers along the way. Never leave pets alone in a vehicle during summer. Temperatures can climb above 100 degrees in a matter of moments.
Know the Symptoms of Heatstroke
Humans cool down when we sweat. Dogs chill when they pant. But if your pet can’t stop panting, has labored breathing, his gums turn white or blue, or he becomes lethargic, get to a vet right away. These are warning signs of heatstroke, which can cause serious illness or even death.
Control the Critters
Whether it’s a collar, a pill, or a medication you put on his skin, it’s important to keep your pet flea- and tick-free. These bugs feast on his blood — and yours. Plus they carry nasty ailments like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Talk to your vet about the best choice. If you live in a place where ticks thrive, check your pet after every trip outside. If he has fleas, chances are they’re in your house and yard, too. The vet can tell you how to treat them.
Pick Pet-Safe Products
The things that make your yard and garden healthy, like fertilizers and weed killers, can make your four-legged friend sick. Look for non-toxic options and use them as directed. Make sure spray-on chemicals have dried before you let your dog roam the yard. Keep bags and bottles tightly sealed where he can’t get to them.
