Warm Weather Tips  

Warm Weather Tips

                                    

 

THE HEAT

 

Make sure your pet has plenty of shade and water this summer.  Arkansas summers can really be rough on your four legged friends.

 

Walking a dog is very relaxing and rewarding, but please keep in mind, your dog can overheat quickly.  So, try to pick the cooler parts of the day to exercise your pet and please have plenty of water on hand.

 

CARS

 

We all run errands, but please do not leave your pet in the car.  A car can really heat up in the summer, even if it’s parked in the shade.  A dog or cat can overheat very quickly which could lead to a heat stoke or even death.

 

ID TAGS

 

Summer is for running around, but we all know how pets can wander off.  Even if your pet has an ID tag, they can become scratched and unreadable, or the entire collar can come off and get lost. Consider microchipping your pet today! A microchip is about the size of a grain of rice that is inserted below the skin. Save our Strays is now offering microchipping to the public at just $15.00 per animal! Email woofitup1@cox.net to set up a time to microchip your pet!
