The arrival of summer means the possibility of carrying out activities as pleasant as walking on the beach with your dog or playing with your cat in the garden or on the terrace. Although the warm temperatures give rise to these moments with your pets, inconceivable on cold or rainy winter days, the truth is that we must be very careful when exposing dogs and kittens to the sun.
Although it seems that they are more protected by their lush coats of fur, in reality both dogs and cats are very vulnerable to the sun, being able to suffer burns and heat strokes. In addition, they do not regulate their body temperature as effectively as humans, since they cannot sweat, but only pant to relieve their hot flashes.
Just as you protect yourself from the sun to avoid suffering the consequences of a burn, you must be very careful with the protection of your pets. With a series of simple tips, your dog or your cat will enjoy the summer season without mishaps.
