But is it? Is a pup cup even <em>safe<\/em> for your pet? How can you keep your dog cool when the outdoors feels nearly unbearable?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In today\u2019s blog, the team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.englishtownvet.com\/\">Englishtown Vet MD<\/a> is here to set the record straight on all the above counts to ensure summer pet safety in NJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s get started!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To Pup Cup or Not to Pup Cup: That is the Question&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to pup cup safety, moderation is the key. Plain whipped cream isn\u2019t toxic to most dogs. But even though it\u2019s technically <em>cool<\/em>, it doesn\u2019t do anything to help regulate body temperatures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And some dogs may even be lactose intolerant, which means that small amounts of dairy can upset your pup\u2019s digestive system. Cue the diarrhea\u2014which <em>can <\/em>lead to dehydration.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More importantly, relying on sweet, cream-based treats instead of actual cooling strategies can make it harder to recognize early signs of heat stress. Most pets will perk up at the first lick of whipped cream, even if they <em>are <\/em>feeling overheated and ill.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Cool Down a Dog During a Heat Snap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.englishtownvet.com\/blog\/are-pup-cups-safe-for-your-dog\/\">a cup of whipped cream<\/a> isn\u2019t an ideal way to cool down your dog, neither is giving them a cup of ice-cold water. This can be a shock to your pet\u2019s system. Instead, focus on gradually cooling your pet down and moving them <em>out <\/em>of the heat as quickly as possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are the steps to take if you\u2019re out for a walk and you notice your pet seems overheated:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Move your pup to a shady area or, ideally, an air-conditioned space right away<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Every few minutes, offer small amounts of cool, but not ice-cold, water to your furry friend<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place damp towels on your pup\u2019s belly, paws, and ears to help cool the body down<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whatever you do, avoid plunging your pup into an ice bath or icy water. This can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.akc.org\/expert-advice\/health\/overheating-in-dogs\/\">constrict the blood vessels<\/a> and interfere with the body\u2019s ability to release heat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can prevent most potential heatstroke situations by simply avoiding taking your pet outside during the hottest hours. Stick to early-morning or late-night walks and hikes if possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And when your dog does <a href=\"https:\/\/www.englishtownvet.com\/blog\/fourth-of-july-pet-safety\/\">spend time outdoors<\/a>, make sure you pack fresh, cool water, and offer it frequently.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dog Heatstroke Signs to Watch Out For<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heatstroke is a real threat in soupy New Jersey summers. This medical emergency happens when the temperature of your dog\u2019s body rises to a dangerous level and it can no longer cool itself down.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To recognize signs of heatstroke in dogs, look out for:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Unusually fast panting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Drool that looks thicker than usual<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gums that are bright red or bluish instead of bubblegum pink<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.englishtownvet.com\/blog\/common-digestive-problems-in-dogs\/\">Vomiting or diarrhea<\/a> after spending time in the heat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weakness, lethargy, stumbling, or collapse\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you notice any of these symptoms in your canine companion, start cooling your dog down right away and then seek veterinary treatment as soon as you can. Heatstroke can get bad quickly, leading to organ damage, or even death, without immediate treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just remember: while a pup cup is a fun treat, it\u2019s not a true solution for heat. For veterinary care following heatstroke symptoms, call <a href=\"https:\/\/www.englishtownvet.com\/staff\/\">our caring team at Englishtown Vet MD<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019re open 6 days a week, starting at 10:00 am every day, and we can help with urgent matters during business hours.
