Help Your Pup Stay Cool This Summer
Sunny days ahead mean more outdoor fun with your pup! But it's important to make mindful choices to protect your dog from too much heat exposure, like taking time in the shade, bringing your pup inside during the hottest times of the day, and reducing activity to only 10-15 minutes at a time when it's over 90 degrees. On top of that, here are some products that can help your canine friends keep their cool this summer.

These ridiculously cute and stylish sneakers by RifRuf actually serve a purpose: to protect your pup's sensitive paws from the scorching temps of hot asphalt.

An excellent way to test if the pavement is safe for your dog is the “seven-second rule": place the back of your hand on the pavement. If you cannot hold it there for at least seven seconds, then the surface is too warm for your dog.
