Hot pathways + roads
Hey guys, just after some advice, again :lol It looks as though we are in for a very hot summer, does anyone know how much heat a dogs paws can stand?? The roads, paths and sand at the beach get sooo unbareably hot for humans, I last year suffered blisters and burns to the bottom of my feet after a day at the beach, so just wondering about Steffi's paws. I'm just curious as to walks and outings in summer. Thanks and as always your advice is appreciated

I thought that was the response I would get from most Hopefully someone has experience in ridiculously hot, dry countries..

I'm not sure to be honest, but if they get too hot for her, I think they have things you can put on their paws to protect them from when it's too hot, so even then it shouldn't be too bad.

I have always changed walk times to early morning and evenings to avoid the hottest part of the day.

This is not really an issue I have had to worry about so far. Keep to walking at cooler times of the day if possible.

Our normal walks are at 5:30am and then an evening walk so daily walks should still be fine, it's more the holiday and weekend day trips i'm thinking about..

They are sooo cute Think Santa will buy her some.. Don't think they would last long, she not really a dressy up kinda girl.. I put a doggy shirt on her once and it didn't even last long enough to get a photo, she took off into the yard and by the time I got out there it was in pieces
