The Heat's On - Take Care of Fido

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  It's going to be 80 degrees or more today in Manhattan.  Summer's here, so be smart.  Drink plenty of water and if you're out with your favorite furry Fido friend, don't forget that dogs need more water than you do!  Their foot pads are sensitive to the hot asphalt and can burn.  Dogs are also sensitive to sun and can get sunburnt, so don't leave them out to bake.  Make certain your favorite friend has shade and if in an apartment during the day, turn on the a/c and leave plenty of water for them.  Leave the bathroom door open, so if your pet is hot, he or she can go lie down on the cool tiles.
We love our dogs, so let's take good care of them!
