Dealing with Desert Heat cont.

• Walk your dog on a grassy areas or in the morning before the concrete/asphalt heats up.
• Hose down a concrete patio to cool it off before letting the dog outside.
• Put cool water in a hard plastic kiddie pool for the dog to lay or play in.
• Make sure your dog has access to cool water all day, both inside and out.
If you see a dog in a parked car that is not running and with the windows up, do not break the windows to rescue the dog — call the police. “Do not walk away,” Soukup said. “Don’t feel like you are overreacting. You could be potentially saving the animal’s life.”
