Four Paws Dog Diesel being dried after his walk!
It poured with rain and Diesel was glad to get dried off as he prefers it sunny! Ah!
Soak this Cooling Bandanna in water and it thermodynamically wicks away heat from your dog as the water evaporates – perfect for hot Summer days.
Love this! Visit traininglines.co.uk for more details.
Four Paws Dorset Dog Oscar on our walk this morning by the River Allen in Wimborne.
Oscar is waiting for me to take his lead off so he can have a good sniff and explore!
What a good doggie sitting so beautifully!
Dogs die in hot cars.
Nobody ever thinks it will happen to them or their much loved family pet, yet every year many people still gamble with their dog’s life and every summer dogs die in hot cars.
Many people still believe that it’s ok to leave a dog in a car on a warm day if the windows are left open or they are parked in the shade. The truth is it’s still very dangerous and while not every dog left in this situation will die, at the very least they are likely to experience distress, discomfort and anxiety.
A car can become an oven very quickly even when it doesn’t feel that warm. When it is 22°c outside – within an hour – the temperature in a car can reach an unbearable 47°c.
It doesn’t have to be a hot day, it doesn’t have to be a car, and it doesn’t have to be a dog. We’ve seen dogs dying in cars but we’ve also, tragically, seen them lose their lives in conservatories. And while generally dogs are most likely to be affected, they are not the only one this applies to. Last year, a man was convicted for leaving his ferret in a car on a warm day. The ferret lost his life.
Please join Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, Blue Cross, British Veterinary Association, Dog’s Trust, The Kennel Club, The Mayhew Animal Home, National Animal Welfare Trust, National Police Chiefs Council, PDSA, RSPCA, #TeamOtisUK and Wood Green The Animals Charity in raising awareness of this issue.
If you see a dog in distress in a hot car please dial 999.
Four Paws Dorset Dog Diesel having some well deserved TLC after our dog walk this morning.
After our dog walk Diesel loves attention and a stroke under his chin is always enjoyed!
I always make sure all Four Paws doggies are settled and happy before I leave.
Diesel you are very special!
Tell me again what the Vet did to the dog!
Injured animals are frightened, in pain and may try to bite anyone who touches them.
If a dog is injured take all necessary precautions. Wear thick gloves and cover/wrap in a coat, blanket or towel.
Seek veterinary help immediately.
Dorset Dogs’ fantastic annual celebration of dogs, green spaces and the countryside will take place at Upton Country Park on Saturday 12 August!
Look forward to a fun-filled day for dogs and their folks, with a fun dog show, children’s activities, doggie obedience and dancing displays and lots of stalls – and of course lots of dogs having a go at agility or the fun rally course. Join the guided walkies, enter the dog show or just sit on the grass and enjoy!
Awesome! Dogs are just amazing!
This photo is taken at a childrens hospital in Italy. The dogs are waiting to go in to see their patients.
Brought tears to my eyes. Look at their enthusiasm!
