Your fur buddies always deserve the best care, especially in this intense heat brought by the summer season. Heatstroke in pets is inevitable these days, and as a fur parent, you should always consider and research pet health tips and ways to keep pets cool this summer. For added knowledge, heatstroke, or heat exhaustion, happens when your pet's body temperature rises above the normal range of more than 102 degrees.

Our fur buddies, such as dogs and cats, possess only a few sweat glands. They cannot sweat themselves off like humans, so they feel hot more easily.

With that being said, here are pet health tips that you should do and remember, as well as pet essentials and products to help you cool up your fur babies!


1. Use stainless steel water and food bowls for your pets.
