As the temperature rises, so does the risk of heatstroke in pets. Heatstroke is a life-threatening condition that occurs when a pet’s body temperature becomes dangerously high, often due to prolonged exposure to heat or physical exertion in hot weather. Unlike humans, pets cannot cool themselves as effectively through sweating, making them more susceptible to overheating. Recognizing the signs of heatstroke and knowing how to respond can save your pet’s life.
Regular exercise is just as important for pets as it is for humans. It not only helps maintain their physical health but also improves their mental well-being, strengthens the bond between pets and their owners, and prevents behavioral issues caused by boredom or excess energy. Whether you have a playful puppy, a senior dog, a curious cat, or a small animal, incorporating regular exercise into their routine is essential for a happy and healthy life.
