Summer is here, hooray! Summertime is wonderful here in Indiana. The days are longer and the weather is heating up which means we will be spending more time outside with our dogs. Although the weather is lovely and should be enjoyed, keep in mind your pet’s safety. Our furry friends can’t take off their coats like we can so it is important to keep them cool. Always keep lots of water available and limit their time outside on extra hot days. When temperatures are over 80 degrees it is a good idea to limit your pets’ time outdoors.
