HYPERTHERMIA - Overheating in animals can be life threatening.
This is much more common in dogs than in cats.
The goal is to return the body temperature to normal.
The easiest way to cool down dogs is to use the garden hose.
Be sure to allow the water to run until cool before applying to the dog.
The dog can be immersed in the bathtub.
It is best not to use ice water as this may cool them too rapidly and cause shock.
Since internal organs may be damaged by overheating you should take your pet to your veterinarian as quickly as possible.

ANNUAL VISITS - Making (and keeping) annual checkups will give you and your veterinarian the chance to notice slow-developing problems and take care of them as soon as possible.
Always monitor your pet's behavior, eating and exercising habits, gums and teeth for anything out of the ordinary.
It is better to be too cautious than to be caught off guard.
SPAY/NEUTER - These procedures are much more than birth control.
Having your female pet spayed helps prevent breast cancer and pyometra, a life-threatening infection of the uterus, and stops the animal from going into heat.
