ANOTHER PSA from RubySue :
Protecting your pup from the soaring heat requires adjusting their walking schedules.
Adjust Walk Times & Paw Care:
* The 5-Second Rule: Place the back of your hand on the pavement for 5 seconds. If it is too hot for your hand, it is too hot for your pups paws.
* Early/Late Outings: Walk your dog in the early morning or late evening when the sun is low and temperatures drop.😎
* Protective Gear: Consider Dog Boots 🥾 to protect their pads from hot asphalt.
* Indoor Alternatives: If it is too hot, try indoor agility, puzzle toys, or visiting pet-friendly stores like The Home Depot 👍🏻 or Petco.
RubySue loves a leg up to rest on after an evening walk or ten 🤣 around the block. 😉
