Keeping your dog safe in an Athens summer
Pavements in July can burn paws. Simple ways to keep walks safe when it's hot.

Pick the right time
Before 8 am and after 8 pm the streets of Athens cool down enough for comfortable walks. Shaded parks like the National Garden help too.
Heatstroke warning signs
Heavy panting, thick drool, bright red gums, stumbling or vomiting all need urgent attention. Move your dog somewhere cool, wet them with cool (not ice-cold) water and call us on the way.
