Why Dogs Need a Different Diet in Hot Weather

As temperatures rise, you may notice small changes in your dog’s behavior. They may sleep more, drink more water, or show less interest in food. These changes are natural. Just like humans, dogs react differently to heat, and their bodies try to adjust to stay cool.
