looking at my local facebook group it was all kicking off about people walking dogs yesterday afternoon
with posters saying they give people a piece of their mind if they see it, others measuring temps of the road and they have seen dogs "panting" in town FFS

whist i do not agree with walking your dogs in Hot sun im not so sure on yesterdays heat

i walk my boy when its warm and keep him close and not let him run, think about walking in shade or going for a swim
yesterday where i am it was about 23c i would have walked him in that but 30c not a chance

i also think the breed of the dog should be taken in to consideration, a large german shepard is going to be different to a terrier

what are peoples thoughts?
