Animal Tips

Applying water on dog’s chest, belly, ears, or gently on their entire coat is the most effective way to cool them down.

Simple snacks to help them in the heat includes watermelon, plain ice, frozen fruit (vet approved), or fruit and water put into the freezer to create a fruit ice block.

Cats, though many dislike water, may comply to a cool, damp cloth being rubbed on their fur, which is particularly effective when it’s on their belly or armpits.

Refreshing snacks can include frozen tuna, watermelon, plain yogurt, and ice.
