As the weather gets warmer we should be alert and sensitive tot the needs of our dogs. The medical profession tells us we humans should drink 2 litres of water every day and as we contemplate that idea we should remember to provide our dogs with adequate supplies of drinking water and remember that their need for water is as great if not greater than ours. Teach your dog to drink from a tap so he or she can have a drink while out walking on a hot day.
