Reader’s Tip: Coping with Hot Weather
It has been unusually warm in California lately and a Puglines reader has written in with their tip for coping with the hot weather.
I have a 4 year old female pug named Little Girl. I live in California and the weather has been extremely hot and humid. My pug has developed a raspy sound in her voice and has difficulty breathing. My vet said it is due to the humid weather and to keep her cool by bathing her in cool water 3 times a day. This seems to help her a lot.
Thanks Little Girl’s Mom!
