Heat and our pets

For those of you who have pets and especially those who run or walk with your dogs, remember to take them along only if the weather permits. In the hot weather they don't always know to hydrate before they exercise. It is up to us, as responsible pet owners to make sure they always have fresh and clean water available at all times. If you do take them on a run or walk, be sure to carry along water; not only for you, but for your dog as well. Animals suffer from heat stroke as well as humans..and it is up to us to take care of them.
