Hi,
Well, summer has finally arrived to the Pacific Northwest. The last
couple
of days have been hot, hot, hot. The fact that I keep cooking meals in
the
oven doesn't help. I used my infrared thermometer in the living room here
and at 8:30PM it's still almost 87 degrees F. in here. My question is
when
do I become worried about Kiba's activity level in this heat? I realize
that a lot of you deal with much higher temps. but for us on this tiny
island, heat is rare. What should I watch for, other than the common
sense
things, like making sure he has lots of fresh water, don't play outdoors
in
the day etc... He seems to be panting a lot today, so that's why I'm
asking. I thought a smaller dog should do better in the heat ( I don't
know
why), but Kiba seems to be affected quite a bit today, at least in the
panting category. Thanks.
