ng, weakness and collapse are signs of heat exhaustion and can be dangerous for dogs. What I would do is I would get them to the shade immediately. You want to cool them down with some cool but not ice cold water. So you know you don't need to put ice cubes in there or anything, just some water straight from the tap, run it over them, but the biggest thing is, of course, to get them into your vet immediately, Morgan said. Dr. Morgan said even a car's pet mode with the AC on full blast can still be risky because how long you will spend away from the car is always uncertain. Dr. Morgan said, I would try to adjust plans as much as possible, so you're not leaving your dog in the car. Morgan said different dog breeds can have varying reactions to the heat. Your short-faced dogs, your bulldogs, your French bulldogs, your pugs, those are going to be very prone to overheating. For those guys, I would recommend, you know, be very brief with the outside activity this time of year, and definitely keep a close eye on them, Morgan said. Your larger dogs typically, they will not overheat quite as fast as your short-faced dogs, but they can overheat a little bit more quickly than humans, Morgan added. Morgan also suggested limiting your time outside during the hottest times of day. She suggested putting the back of your hand on the cement for seven seconds, and if it's too hot for your hand it's too hot for a dog's paws.
