Dog Owners - It's Hot AF

I've seen a few people walking their dogs on my lunch and it's 30°C+.

Veterinary organizations and animal charities, such as the Royal Kennel Club and the RSPCA, warn that temperatures above 27°C are dangerous and potentially life-threatening for all dogs.

Don't be like these very stupid people. Walk your dog early in the morning or later in the evening when the temps have dropped off.

Pass it on.

Missing a dog walk once won’t kill your dog. But walking them once in this heat might.
