Panting a lot

I'm so relieved to hear that other people's Shelties pant a lot also! I figured it was just the heat mixed with the fact she's wearing quite a heavy coat! I'll try those tips of ice water and vanilla ice cream-- bet she'll love that. I do put a fan towards her sometimes and she seems to like it, less panting, but still usually a light pant. Our electric bill has been so high this summer we don't turn it down passed 78 so poor baby probably is a bit warm.

I ordered a furminator and maybe this will help her be cooler when some of the unneeded hair is gone. THANKS everyone!

When Max was little, I would run down to Sonic & buy a bag of their ice. It's very soft & he loved it. Now he likes ice better than water.:rolleyes2:
 
Che pants a lot specially after running around in pooch park on hot day- we only go early morning or late eve when its hot but still.... I found washing his tummy and legs with cool water does the trick.
