We are all looking forward to some warm weather and sunshine this summer, but does your pet feel the same way?Back by paw-pular demand, the first episode of this new Petcast series follows our animal-loving host, Emma Barton, and her co-host, Poppy Dog, as they explore how we can keep our pets safe this summer - along with special guests, British Paralympian, Hollie Arnold MBE, and Blue Cross Chief Veterinary Surgeon, Caroline Reay.Over the summer months, pets are susceptible to a whole host of health and safety issues, including dehydration, respiratory issues, overheating and insect stings. From cool-down techniques and summertime treats, to pet CPR and staycation preparation – Petcast listeners are provided with all the tips and tricks that they need to prevent their pets from potential risks this summer.To help keep our four-legged friends happy and healthy during the summer, Veterinary specialist Caroline Reay also talks about sunscreen: “When they are playing and having a good time with the family, pets don’t realise how hot they are getting, so it is very hard for animals to adjust to the weather.“It’s a good idea for dogs to wear pet-safe sunscreen – particularly for white dogs and hairless areas. One area we need to be careful about is the bridge of their nose, and cats can also have problems and get sunburn on the top of their ears.” Hosted on Acast.
