Feb 29, 2024 | General Veterinary Care, Loving Pets, Paws and Effect Podcast, Pet Care, Pet Ownership

In this episode of Dr Carra’s Paws & Effect podcast, Dr Carra and Dr. Nic Stirk from Watercrest Veterinary Clinic, record from a sweltering car, showing the dangers of leaving pets in your car, especially on hot days.

They cranked up the heat – literally – showing the dangers pets face if they’re left behind on hot days. In this raw episode, they sit in the hot car for an episode you can’t skip. They get into the nitty-gritty of heatstroke, how our furry pals handle the heat, and crucial tips to keep them safe. They also chat about how dogs have it rough when temperatures soar and what signs scream for attention.

Dr. Nic Stirk is the kind of vet who looks out for our furry friends, especially when it comes to the danger of leaving them in hot cars. He’s the guy telling you straight: no quick nip to the shops is worth the risk. Whether you’re stuck at the till behind someone counting pennies or you get caught up having a chinwag about someone’s pet, there’s no such thing as a quick in-and-out when you’re running errands.

Keep your pets cool, hydrated, and always, always safe during the hot summer days.
