HEAT STROKE RISK HIGHER IN DOGS WITH BLACK FUR

It’s true. Animals covered in dark colored fur are at greater risk of heat stroke. The darker fur absorbs more light (rather than reflecting it) and that light is converted into heat energy. A dark-furred pet will get hot much more quickly than one with lighter fur.

Overweight and short nosed breeds are also at greater risk during hot weather. Make sure to provide ample shade for your pets and enjoy most of your outdoor time together during the coolest hours of the day.

Animal Rescue Chase

The Great Animal Rescue Chase celebrates the art of animal rescue with a worldwide race to rescue one million. It’s a free event, open to all, and is perhaps the only global animal rescue event aimed at helping any animal in distress, anywhere in the world. Our ambition is to create a culture of enthusiasm and pride in animal activism. We believe in teaching, by example, that there is a hero in each of us just waiting to be unleashed. Empowered animal lovers can not only save lives, but build the momentum for powerful animal welfare reform.
