Laura Vissaritis Instagram – FREEZE!! Community service announcement.
My boys want to remind you to get all your treat dispensers into the freezer overnight – with their regular food and yummy treats. Here are some ideas:
Cut up watermelon slices and pop them in the freezer
Freeze lactose free yoghurt/milk in different containers
Get creative with healthy foods stuffed in treat balls and toys
Make up some broth and freeze it in ice cube trays
(Pop a little broth in your dogs water to encourage more drinking, if they are older, puppies or have underlying kidney issues)
Chunky ice – bits of yummy things frozen in an ice block
Frozen treats should be ingested slowly, not easily gobbled up. They are designed to enrich your dog during the hot day not replace their food intake.
Also remember:
No exercise during the day
Inside with aircon
Keep temperature constant cool throughout the day
No car rides, unless emergency (even though your car may be air conditioned, the walk to and from the car is not)
Exercise common sense… and prevent heat distress.
