Dog Days of July: Keeping Cool & Staying Safe

Dog Days of July: Keeping Cool & Staying Safe

Summer is in full swing and July brings the warmest days of the year—perfect for backyard play, long walks, and weekend adventures. But with rising temps, it’s important to keep our furry friends safe, cool, and hydrated. Whether you’re hitting the beach, firing up the grill, or simply lounging in the shade, make sure your pup has plenty of fresh water and a cool spot to relax.

This month is also a good time to watch out for hot pavement (it can burn paws!), noisy fireworks (which can cause stress), and pesky parasites like fleas and ticks. A little planning goes a long way in making July fun and worry-free. So grab the leash, some treats, and enjoy those sunny days with your best friend by your side!

Here are a few tips from our team:

Hydration is key: Always provide fresh, cool water—especially after walks or playtime. You can find the perfect travel water bottle at daisysdogcollars.com

Paw protection: Hot pavement can burn sensitive paws. Walk during cooler morning or evening hours.

Firework stress: July 4th can be scary for pets. Create a quiet, safe space at home, and consider calming products if needed.

Parasite prevention: Fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes are out in full force—keep up with monthly preventatives.


  Whether you're planning weekend getaways or backyard fun, a little preparation goes a long way in keeping your dog safe and comfortable. Wishing you and your pets a joyful, tail-wagging July!  


With gratitude,
