Episode Details

With a serious heatwave hitting the country and the Met Office issuing extreme heat warnings, pets are at serious risk — especially flat-faced breeds and overweight animals who struggle to cool down. Dr. Alex Crow breaks down simple, life-saving tips: never leave pets in cars, freeze their food or water for cooling, use water fountains for cats, and heed the pavement test. Cooling mats, early walks, and watching for signs like heavy panting or red gums can mean the difference between comfort and emergency. If overheating is suspected, cool them down yourself first — with lukewarm water — before rushing to the vet.
