When temperatures exceed 89°F, dogs risk heat stroke, making it crucial to avoid outdoor walks at 90°F or higher. Each dog's breed, size, age, health, and coat type affect their heat tolerance. Signs of heat stroke include excessive panting, drooling, vomiting, and disorientation. Prevent heat stroke by ensuring proper hydration, using pet-safe sunscreen, and avoiding hot surfaces. In an emergency, cool your dog gradually and seek veterinary help immediately. Adjust routines to keep pets safe, like walking during cooler times or providing frozen treats.
