Many people know that walks and their options largely depend on the time of year.

The owner should always take into account weather conditions in order to avoid harm to the dog.

Experts note that summer has its own peculiarities.

What do they consist of?

Risk group

There are certain types of dogs that can be particularly harmed by walking on a hot day. We are talking about small puppies and older dogs. They really should not be out in the scorching heat.

Also, you shouldn't take dogs with black fur outside in hot weather: they may get heat stroke.

Time

Try to reschedule your walks for a time with minimal solar activity. Take your first walk early and stay longer.

Afterwards, it's worth going outside in the evening. And the final walk can be done right before bed.

Places

Despite the fact that all owners treat their pets for parasites, this does not always protect against tick bites. Therefore, choose the highest quality products and do not walk in the forest.

If you still violate these recommendations, then you should check your dog for pests after each walk.
