It's ok to wet my dog at leats twice a day just because the hot weather?

Answer 1

As long as you're not soaking him/her in cold water when he/she is already hot, you're fine. If the dog is hot and you put cold water on them, you can cause them to have a heart attack due to shock and die. If you can, give your dog a kiddie pool with enough water for them to get wet in, and leave it in a shady place. Then they can choose if they want to be wet or not. Never force your dog to get wet if they don't want to.

Answer 2

Yes. Depending on the breed and coat type though, you may need to keep a eye out for hot spots if the undercoat does not dry out. A good bath every week or at least every other week can help.

Answer 3

Considering that dogs don't have sweat glands, I think it is wise to do such a task. Water is a sticky substance that cools down the body and since every warm blooded animal, including humans needs to cool off in hot days, I say say.

I mean pigs, whom have no sweat glands, use mud to cool off.

Answer 4

Yes it is safe to do that, just make sure you don't wash your dog more than 3 times a month because that can cause the dog to get skin disease.

Answer 5

Are you asking or telling?
If it's cooler in your house bring the dog inside during the hottest time of the day. Where do stay when it's hot, outside?

Answer 6

Yes but be careful some breeds of dogs skin can dry out easily from water.

Answer 7

Get your dog clipped by a groomer. It helps tremendously in hot weather.

Answer 8

Answer 10

a good refreshment for dogs: soak a towel in normal temperature water, wringled it out and wrap it around the dog's neck.
