Because 40°C days are no joke — especially for our furry friends.

Alice Springs summers can be brutal. As pet owners, it’s our job to make sure our dogs stay safe, cool, and hydrated.

💧 5 tips to help your dog beat the heat:

1. Regular grooming. Excess fur traps heat — regular brushing and professional grooming help your dog regulate temperature.
   

2. Hydration stations. Keep fresh, cool water available at all times. Add ice cubes for bonus points.
   

3. Shade over style. Avoid midday walks. Go early morning or late evening when the pavement’s cooler.
   

4. Cooling mats & fans. A small investment that can make a huge difference.
   

5. Watch for signs of heatstroke. Heavy panting, drooling, or lethargy? Cool your dog immediately and contact your vet.
