Keep cool

1. Install a DIY Home Patio Misting Kit:
Patio misters, also known as home patio misting systems, are highly effective ways to keep your patio in your backyard refreshing and cool during hot summer days.

2. Relax in the great outdoors:
Often the outdoor temperatures are much cooler than inside a poorly ventilated apartment that has been absorbing the sun’s heat all day. So take your dog outside to a very shady park with a cool breeze.

3. Exercise your dogs in the early morning, evening, or late at night:
If it’s hot for you, it’s too hot for them!

4. Get your dog (or cat!) in the water:
Find a water feature/fountain for your dog to play in, or take your dog swimming in a clean ocean, river, stream, etc.

5. Keep your home cool:
Install sun-blocking curtains; turn off or unplug appliances; utilize cross-breezes; remove your rugs for the summer; make use of fans.

6. Make use of frozen goods:
Give your pet some frozen toys.
