As a dog owner, I've suddenly panicked about keeping my pup cool during stifling temperatures once the heatwave hits. And if last year's weather is anything to go by, it's only going to get hotter from here on in, so I'm determined to be more prepared this year.
But of course, it's not just dogs, it's important to keep all domesticated animals cool because hot weather creates uncomfortable living conditions for us humans – imagine how unbearable it can be for our fur-covered friends.
