When your pet is panting heavily, it is in\ndanger of becoming dehydrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because you\u2019re the one with opposable thumbs, it\nfalls on you to keep your fur-babies\u2019 water bowls full. Adding ice to the bowl\nhelps to cool things down and can keep your pet entertained. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another way to help your pets with beating the summer heat is by installing a doggy door to allow them to go freely between the outdoors for fun in the sun and quenching their thirst at the lake\u2019s edge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be cautious, however, since some bodies of water can contain microorganisms that can be bad for your pet\u2019s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-take-a-swim\"><strong>Take a Swim<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking a swim with your pet in your favorite lake will bring down body temperature and is one of the quickest ways to help your pets with beating the summer heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But before you dive in, make sure your pet is\nprepared. Don\u2019t assume every dog knows how to swim instinctively; particularly\nthose with big chests and tiny legs. Certain builds and breeds can struggle in\nthe water and might require an animal life vest to enjoy the lake. Stay close\ninitially until you\u2019re sure your pet is a natural swimmer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, think about how they will get into and out\nof the water. Access is often achieved by simply jumping from your home\u2019s deck\nor dock into the lake, so you should make sure your structures are free of\nprotruding nails and screws that could injure your pets when they jump. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Access to an exit from the water is very\nimportant. If your dock lacks stairs, you may want to add a ramp to the nearby\nshore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And be sure to check the water level to make\nsure it is deep enough for your pets to jump into the water safely. Submerged\nhazards are just as dangerous for Fido as they are for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-provide-some-shade\"><strong>Provide Some Shade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Providing shade for your pet in the warmest parts of the day is important for beating the summer heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shade trees are an instinctive choice for many pets who need to cool down. But if your lake home is short on natural shade, you can create a fur-friendly corner of your shaded deck by setting up a small fan, a water bowl and a cool mat or wet towel to lie on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can set up a similarly shady spot away from\nthe house with a big beach or market umbrella to produce artificial shade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pets are important members of the family.\nFollowing these simple tips can keep them healthy and let them enjoy the lake\nas much as their human companions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more on keeping your pet safe at the lake, check out these great stories: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/articles-and-news\/protecting-your-pets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Protecting Your Pets: Animal Safety While Showing Your Home<\/a>&#8221; and &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/articles-and-news\/pet-travel-prepare-pet-trip-lake\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pet Travel: How to Prepare Your Pet for a Trip to the Lake<\/a>&#8220;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The dog days of summer are HERE, so it\u2019s time for a reminder about your role in helping every member of your household beat the heat.
