Veterinarian Dr. Rebecca Jackson worked in a mountain town in Alberta a few years ago in the summer when patients showed signs of heat stroke. The story has a happy ending: the dog’s temperature has dropped and he has fully recovered, Jackson said. Why pets overheatIf you take your pet out on a hot day, be aware of the signs of heat stroke that occur when your body is unable to cope with external heat. Pet owners should also be aware that some animals are more vulnerable to heat stroke than others. Puppies are more susceptible to heat stroke than adult dogs, Richardson said.
