I want to get a kiddie pool to put in the shade at my house for my dog to get in, but with it being so hot, im afraid of snakes crawling into it….i keep soaking my dog with cool water from the hose…he LOVES it! I HATE to see people riding their dogs around in the back too, you know the bed of that pickup gets really hot on the pads of their feet and then if they leave them in the back while they go inside somewhere, you know it gets ridicuously hot. Kepp them at home either inside or keep your air on in your truck and put them inside. Would you want to be left on the back of a HOT truck???

Please do not ride your dogs, on the back of your p/u truck bed or tool box. I know this is so very cool, but so very dangerous to your pet.

Often people forget that their pets need extra water, so I always put 2 bowls of water out, (for each animal) spaced apart, in case one gets knocked over.That way they have water, if it is really hot I put ice cubes in the water so it is cooler. The ice cubes melt but it keeps the water a little cooler for them. Thank you for all the information and for putting this on NE.com!!!
