How to Protect Your Pets From Hot Weather Days

So you have four legged, furry family members, what kind of special care do you need to give them on super hot days? Here's a few things according to ASPCA.org and Petfinder.com.

• Keep your pets stay hydrated. Make sure that they have constant access to fresh water.
• Make sure that your pets have a shady spot to keep them out of the sun.
• Keep pets off hot asphalt. The excessive temperatures can heat the asphalt to such a temperature that it burns your pet's paws. Think of how you feel walking on super hot sand in your bare feet.
• Watch out for signs of heat stroke. If your pet shows any of the following signs, get them to a vet immediately. Symptoms include, 'panting, lethargy, drooling, vomiting and collapse.'
• Give them a fan to sit or relax in front of.
• Keep them indoors in the air conditioning.
