Once a dog suffers from heatstroke for more than two hours, the mortality rate is usually over 90%. Heat stroke occurs when a dog's normal body mechanisms are unable to maintain a safe range of body temperature. Remember to avoid walking your dog during hot weather, avoid strenuous exercise, and bring plenty of water with you when you go out to rehydrate your dog.

How to avoid heatstroke in dogs? Do not leave your dog alone in the car, especially in summer. If the air conditioner is turned off, the temperature inside the car will soar in a short time. Don’t lock your dog in places like balconies, yards, or rooftop terraces in summer. Avoid walking your dog when it’s hot, avoid strenuous exercise, and bring plenty of water with you when you go out to replenish your dog’s fluids.
