Is hot weather okay for a dog kept outside if water, shade, and fans are provided.?
My 120 lb English Mastiff is in heat (bleeding). Although I bought a diaper for her, I am forced to wash it 2-3 times a day as it gets quite nasty. While washing / drying it, which can take an hour or two, I have been keeping her outside in our screened in patio. Due to the direction which the patio sits, it is never in direct sunlight, but we do live in Orlando, FL, where it is miserably hot now during the summer. Our patio does have fans which I’ve been keeping on high and I always make sure she has a large bowl of water while she is on the patio. I even add a few ice cubes to make sure the water stays cool. Please let me know if the conditions described above could potentially be at all dangerous for my dog.
It should be OK if you keep an eye on her, and watch for signs of heat stress..such as excessive panting/drooling…not alert when you speak to her…Best yet..stay out with her for the 2 hours and read a book..Then you won’t have to worry..
You could dampen her coat and wipe her face with a wet cloth..that would help her stay cool..
