The summer blaze has been hard on Sridevi Nayak’s dog, Coco, all of four months. “He is hyperactive and irritated,” says the Bengaluru-based communication professional, who adopted the puppy this March.
Though she has been trying to keep him cool by ensuring that her home is well-ventilated, sprinkling water on him to cool him down after his morning and evening walk, feeding him hydrating meals, and leaving ice cubes out for him, she constantly worries about her pet. “He doesn’t drink water, and I can see how concentrated his urine is,” she says. “This summer has been very hard on him.”
