How to keep your pets cool during the summer heat wave

The "dog days" of summer are right around the corner. With record breaking temperatures from the Pacific Northwest all the way to New England, it is time to pay extra close attention to your pets.

Pet parents should make sure their fur babies are hydrated and equipped with all the additional cooling comforts. The market is flooded with products that can keep their paws, eyes and skin safe from the UV rays, as well as lower their body temperatures.

It is important to know that your pets can easily overheat as the temperatures rise this summer. According to the Humane Society of the United States, always be sure to provide water for your pet whether inside or outside, keep exercise to a minimum and watch for signs of heatstroke.

We rounded up a collection of products that will help make your summer adventures with your furry friend fun and safe.
