<p>We got a paddling pool for our girl some years ago - but she does not want to go in - maybe the water temperature is not correct for the lady! She does jump into every river and lake though… </p>

Hi Kay, my boy Memphis has a kids paddling pool that he loves to lie in and then will find a cool spot to lie on. You can also get cool mats that I rather than the cool coats as they seem so heavy.<br />
Cheers.

<p>I was told by a trainer not to get the top of the dog wet when he is out exercising because it evaporates quickly and makes him hot again. She used a spray bottle to wet down Nugget's underside. Also she advised not to let him drink water too fast when he has exercised as he can get the twisting of his stomach.</p>

<p>I'd be careful with the shower, if Baylee is really overheated after playing and not just normally hot and overexcited, and start with hand warm water. A vet once advised us to wet Joy's head and especially her ears,…</p>

<p>I'd be careful with the shower, if Baylee is really overheated after playing and not just normally hot and overexcited, and start with hand warm water. A vet once advised us to wet Joy's head and especially her ears, when outdoors in hot weather; so I try to 'soak' her right at the beginning of our walk and whenever there is a possibility like a fountain, brook or lake. </p> Thank you.

Thank you. Baylee decided last night to sleep on the kitchen floor instead of his usual spot near me. I will get the fan out and see if he uses that. He would probably do t he same thing with the coat too.
