Symptoms of Heatstroke in Dogs

1. The body temperature rises and exceeds 40 degrees. Usually, the dog's body temperature is maintained at about 38-39 degrees. Once it exceeds 42 degrees, there will be a risk of death.

2. In the case of panting and excessive heartbeat, the blood vessels around the dog's body will expand extremely, resulting in a rapid drop in blood pressure, so the blood flow through the lungs will be severely insufficient.

3. Reluctant to move, not even to take a walk, drooling, tired, lack of energy, looks languid.

4. Decreased appetite. Due to heat stroke, the internal organs of the dog will also be damaged, which will affect the appetite. In severe cases, it may even cause frequent vomiting, diarrhea, blood in the stool, etc.

Ways for dogs to escape the heat in summer

1. Don't go out to walk your dog in hot weather. In summer, the temperature of the road surface is higher than the temperature in the air, and the heat dissipation function of the soles of the dog's feet is weakened, so it is easy to suffer from heat stroke.

2. Fill the used Coke bottle with water, cover the bottle cap, and put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration. When the water is completely frozen, take it out and put it in the kennel.

3. Turn on the fan, or turn on the air conditioner appropriately to keep the room ventilated.

4. Ensure that the dog has enough drinking water and replace it regularly to ensure that the water is fresh and clean.

5. Do not lock the dog in the car or the trunk when taking the dog out, as it may cause the dog to die of heatstroke.

6. Don't let them engage in strenuous exercise.
