Dogs In KIldare Should Be Kept In Shade This Week As Temperatures Rise

Temperatures are expected to rise to 23 degrees in some parts.

Dogs should be kept in the shade this week because they can overheat very easily.

That's the advice from Dogs Trust as temperatures are expected to rise to 23 degrees in some part of Kildare

Research shows almost 7 in 10 heat stroke cases in dogs are caused by simply going out for a walk when it's hot.

The charity recommends bringing pups for their exercise early in the morning or later at night, when it's cooler.
