    ahh right!! hell she was like a nodding dog while i tried to check that one out! hehe

    right  they stay as they are they don’t move at all, and the sound seems to come from like maybe the top of her nose or back of her throat!??!?!?

    keeping them cool – it’s too hot for dogs!!!

    ice cubes in the water

    flavoured ice cubes – veg juices like carrot, fruit juices like apple, mango

    frozen kongs

    frozen pieces of fruit and veg  –  a good one is water melon because of its water content

    frozen bones and meat pieces

    keep a spray bottle full of water in the ‘fridge – spray the pads, the tum, the genital area, the mouth,
    inside the flews (lips)

    to encourage them to drink – add a small spoonful of liquid honey or glucose to the water bowl – drop floating food treats in it so they play ‘bobbing the treat’

    if your dog is becoming too hot and dehydrated add apple cider vinegar to the water and if need be shringe it down the throat – wet some vet bedding for snoozying on – find somewhere cool – put on a fan so it blows across the dog but not directly in to face  – encourage the dog to drink every 30 minutes.

    some people remove water at night as they think this stops the dog wanting a pee in the night hours – it doesnt but that is not the point – this is not the time of the year to deny water – encourage them to drink as much as they want 🙂

    depends on the make/type – if it very acidic then yes – so just a flavour – but carrot,apple and mango no i dont.

    I’ve left Murph on my bed with the fan on and the windows wide open for him  😉  I also put ice cubes in his water bowl so he bobs in the water for them.  He’s not eating much during the day either, tends to eat at night when it’s cooler, bless him !  :-*  I hate the heat and the sun, in fact every time the clouds came out yesterday, I came outside !!  LOL

    honey just wants to sit outside all the time!!! it doesnt seem to bother her  -think i worry about it more than she does – was going to give them a frozen chicken leg later can they have it straight from the freezer or does it need to defrost a little first?  ???
