A Healthy, Happy Summer!
Cooling off in the water bowl!
This month, animal nutritionist Jonathan Woodroofe shares some valuable information on keeping your pets healthy and happy during the hot summer months! You can read about how help your pets avoid heat stroke and get some tips on feeding your pets during warmer weather.
Part 1 - Heat Issues!
“Summer is on its way, and it is important to be aware of the impact of hot weather on your pets. Dogs and cats will modify their behaviour to minimise the effect of hot conditions, so you may notice that your pets are less active and seek out cool areas when things get uncomfortably warm...” read more.
Part 2 - Food Issues!
“Dogs and cats will tend to eat less and drink more during periods of hot weather. There are a number of food-related issues that owners need to be conscious of over the summer months…” read more.
