As the temperatures begin to rise due to summer, today's episode addresses a pressing concern that pet owners should be keenly aware of, especially during the scorching days ahead: heat stroke. Heat stroke is a serious condition that can occur in pets when their body temperature rises above normal due to prolonged exposure to high temperatures, humidity, and their limited ability to regulate heat. Dogs and cats, in particular, are vulnerable to heat stroke as they rely on panting as their primary cooling mechanism, which may not be adequate during hot weather. I will explain the key factors contributing to heat stroke in pets, shedding light on the leading causes and preventive measures.
