Keep Your Pets Hydrated and Cool This Summer

Summertime brings outdoor adventures, but it’s important to consider the heat when out with our furry friends. Keeping your pets hydrated and cool during the summer months is vital to ensuring their health and safety.

Frozen raw bones are great for a cool treat, and even help with dental health! At Theresa’s, we offer freezable items like bone broth and goat’s milk that can be turned into refreshing treats. Simply pour them into a popsicle mold and freeze for hydrating snacks your pets will love.

Paw pads are incredibly sensitive, and hot pavement can cause burns and discomfort. Test the ground with your hand—if it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for your pet! During peak heat hours, opt for walks in the shade, or wait until early morning or late evening.

Temperatures inside a parked car can skyrocket quickly. Even on a mild 70-degree day, the temperature inside a car can soar to over 90 in mere minutes. Leaving pets in a car, even for a short period, can be extremely dangerous and should always be avoided.

For pets that need extra help staying cool, we carry a range of cooling products. Cooling bandanas and mats are designed to lower your pet’s body temperature and provide relief from the heat, perfect for pets who enjoy spending time outdoors or are more susceptible to heat stress.

At Theresa's Country Feed and Pet Store, we are dedicated to providing the best solutions to keep your furry friends happy and healthy all season long. Visit us today to explore our full range of cooling products and other pet essentials!
