As temperatures break records, it’s essential to keep pets, especially dogs, cool and safe. Marian Eccles, Director of the Unleashed Foundation, representing the Sheridan Dog and Cat Shelter, shared tips on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse. Dogs control their temperature through their feet pads and mouths, so it’s crucial to provide water and shade.
