TIPS FOR SUMMER TIME

HOT DOG IN THE CITY
DON'T FORGET WHO'S WEARING SHOES AND WHO ISN'T. CONCRETE CAN HEAT UP FAST AND COULD INJURE YOU DOG'S PADS. TRY TO LET YOU 4 LEGGED FRIEND WALK IN THE GRASS OR THE SHADE VERSES THE CONCRETE OR SLIP ON SUM SLIPPERS. 
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE SNUB NOSE BREEDS THAT WE OWN CAN OVERHEAT IN THE SUN FASTER THAN OTHER BREEDS, ALTHOUGH ANY DOG CAN SUFFER FROM HEAT STROKE.  NO HEAVY EXERCISE DURING THE HOTTEST TIME OF DAY . THE USE OF A RUBBER CURRY COMB HELPS WITH THE SHEDDING AND DON'T FORGET THE FLEA AND TICK TREATMENT . 

LIFE IS A BEACH
SAND IS A WORKOUT TO RUN IN AND GREAT FOR DIGGING BUT GROOMING IS A MUST AFTER A DAY AT THE BEACH. A GOOD BATH AFTER A LONG DAY AT THE BEACH , BEACH SAND CAN BE TENACIOUS. SALT WATER IS NOT A GOOD SOURCE OF DRINKING WATER FOR YOUR POOCH , SO MAKE SURE TO BRING CLEAN WATER FOR THEM TO DRINK THROUGHOUT THE DAY , AND DON'T FORGET THE SUNSCREEN THE LIGHTER DOGS CAN BURN EASILY ( NOSE) , GIVE HIM THAT LIFEGUARD LOOK. DOGGY SUNSCREEN PLEASE INCASE HES A LICKER.

COOL IN THE POOL
TO MUCH CHLORINE CAN WRECK A DOGS COAT AND SKIN .  MORE SUNSCREEN ON THE NOSE AND EARS. AFTER THE DIP IN THE POOL , RINSE YOUR BULLY WITH FRESH WATER AND A GENTLE SHAMPOO. CONCRETE DECKS AGAIN CAN GET REALLY HOT FAST. OUCH AND FRESH WATER FOR THEM TO DRINK. THEY SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE SOME EXIT TO COME OUT OF THE POOL STEPS , RAMP, ETC. IF YOUR POOCH IS NOT A  GOOD SWIMMER A LIFE VEST MAY BE IN ORDER . PLEASE REMEMBER DOGS , PUPPYS ARE LIKE KIDS THEY SHOULD NEVER BE LEFT ALONE UNSUPERVISED BY A POOL. 

A SUMMER OF FUN IS A SUMMER OF GROOMING, BUT IF YOU PROTECT HIS COAT AND SKIN AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE THEN THESE DOG DAYS COULD BE THE BEST OF THE YEAR.
