Some great advice for our guests with dogs in this very hot weather

Some helpful information from our Vet Clair.

How to protect paws on hot pavements
1. Follow the seven-second rule and check the surface for heat before you leave the house.
2. Keep to grass.
3. Walk early in the morning or late in the evening when surfaces are cooler.
4. Invest in a pair of booties to help avoid burning paws.

Just a quick reminder about the need for close control of your dogs when visiting the countryside - unless you have total recall at all times dogs should not be allowed off lead, they shouldn't chase anything, not sheep, not birds, not squirrels, rabbits etc. Never mind the terror and loss of life to other animals your dog is also at great risk too - it could get run over, fall over a rock edge, and worst case if chasing among livestock it could get shot.
There are so many lovely dog parks countrywide now that allow perfectly safe off lead exercise, there is no excuse for an out of control dog in the open countryside.
If you're staying in Cumbria and looking for a dog park I can thoroughly recommend Welly and Tails

Offer now extended until June 30th - great way to explore the Lake District in a more eco friendly way.
