But of course, in warm temperatures, it will be more likely to occur. Most dogs will be comfortable in temperatures of around 15-25 degrees. However, this does depend on other factors too such as the dog breed, age, size, coat length, the amount of exercise they do, and their general health and fitness.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What to do if your dog has heatstroke<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, you have noticed your poor pooch is showing signs of heatstroke. Now is the time to take action. Here\u2019s what to do:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Firstly, you\u2019ll need to move your pup out of the heat and into a shaded, cooler area. If you have a fan on hand, the cool air will help keep your dog cool.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pour <\/span><b>cool <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">water over your dog \u2013 tap water at around 15-16\u00b0C is the most effective option. Make sure the water is not too cold as you don\u2019t want to shock them.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give your dog plenty of cool water to drink. Adding a pinch of table salt to their water bowl can help to rehydrate them.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regularly check your dog\u2019s body temperature and keep up the water-cooling process above until their temperature drops.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Call for veterinary advice, you probably will need to bring them in for further help. When you do, make sure you keep the car windows open or have the air conditioning on as you transport them.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-42585\" src=\"https:\/\/pets-blog-prod.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.comhttps:\/\/www.petspyjamas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/17102805\/Blog-Image-4-690x345.png\" alt=\"Corgi drinking water to prevent heatstroke\" width=\"754\" height=\"377\" \/><br \/><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tips on how to prevent dog heatstroke during your \u2018Wonderful for Walkies\u2019 holiday<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, you want your pup to have the best time when on their PetsPyjamas dog-friendly holiday! Particularly if you are venturing on a \u2018Wonderful for Walkies\u2019 holiday where there are so many dog walk opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, how do you keep your dog cool and comfortable this summer so they can enjoy the holiday as much as you? Here are our top tips:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As exercising is one of the most common causes of heatstroke, it\u2019s best on a hot day to have your dog walks early morning or late evening. Then try to keep to shaded areas to avoid the midday sun and heat exhaustion.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always carry water with you in a water bottle and take regular stops for your pup to have a drink to avoid a heat-induced illness. Remember to have fresh water with you on the beach too, drinking seawater will only dehydrate your pup further.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For your dog-friendly holiday, consider taking a harness with you. This way, you can attach the lead to it and prevent pulling on their collar. When you have the lead attached to your dog\u2019s collar, this can press against their airways and can cause further heat stress.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid hot pavements as this can burn your dog\u2019s poor paws. Always feel the ground to check it won\u2019t be too painful for your pup to walk on.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When taking a break, you can put down wet towels for your dog to lie on. Make sure they are away from direct sunlight to keep their body temperature down.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never leave your dog in the car by themselves, and make sure that you have plenty of air conditioning on when driving with your dog in the car.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you head out on your wonderful for walkies dog-friendly holiday, consider giving your dog a groom! The shorter their fur coat is, the cooler their body temperature will be.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-42586\" src=\"https:\/\/pets-blog-prod.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.comhttps:\/\/www.petspyjamas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/17103043\/Blog-Image-3-690x345.png\" alt=\"Dog drinking water\" width=\"750\" height=\"375\" \/><b>About First Aid For Pets\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First Aid for Pets is an Award Winning Dog First Aid training provider empowering all pet lovers with the skills and confidence to help their pet \u2013 in those first vital minutes before you can get to a Vet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First Aid for Pets is delighted to offer PetsPyjamas customers 20% off our<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinefirstaid.com\/our-courses\/first-aid-for-dogs\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First Aid for Dogs online course<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
