Take The Heat Off Your Pet

Never leave your pet in a parked car on a warm summer day. Within minutes, the temperature inside the car can reach a scorching 120 degrees.

Extreme temperatures can cause heatstroke, which may kill or seriously injure your dog or cat.

Signs of heatstroke include:

  • Hard panting and difficulty breathing
  • Vomiting
  • Rapid heart rate

If you suspect that your pet has heatstroke, see your veterinarian immediately!
