These seasonal rules do not apply to service dogs.
Experts recommend walking your dog in the early morning or evening as temperatures on the pavement can reach more than 100 degrees, and trips outside should only be for about 15 minutes. It’s also important to make sure your pets have plenty of water and stay in the shade.
