"I got this as my labrador couldn't seem
to function with the clear cone we got
from the vet after surgery. He managed
to get it off and chew it up. This has been
a far better alternative and he can still
function with it on (eat and drink, etc.)"

"Highly recommended as an alternative
to a cone. Our dog is so much more
comfortable and happier after her surgery."

Heatstroke is a very serious and life threatening
condition which can occur when your pet overheats
and is unable to reduce their core body temperature.
As a pet owner it is important to know the signs
and symptoms of heatstroke, which include;
c Rapid panting
c Staggering, weakness or lethargy
c Gums and tongue might appear dark or bright
red and be sticky or dry
c Salivating or drooling
c Vomiting and/or diarrhoea – possibly with blood
c Rectal temperature between 40-43 degrees
c Seizures or Coma
Some things that you can do to help lower your
pet's core body temperature if they are overheating
or possibly suffering from heat stroke include;
c Moving them into a cool, shaded place
c Use cool, not freezing, water to cool them down
by offering small amounts to drink or by putting
wet towels on their body, feet and head.
c If you have a fan or air-conditioning this will help
to aid in the evaporation and cooling.
If you ever suspect that your pet is suffering from
heatstroke contact your veterinarian immediately.
Getting heatstroke treated quickly is instrumental
in survival and recovery as it can progress rapidly
and cause organ damage. It is always best that you
speak to your vet even if it seems the condition was
mild or has improved.
