Here’s a new summertime threat that you may never have thought of .... dogs being burned after being hosed off with scalding hose water. A hose that is out in the sun will warm up to high temperatures and when you go to "cool off" your dog or bathe your dog, the hot water can cause severe burns. Below is a link to an article about this potentially hazardous event. Best advise ....... Let the water run for a little bit first and feel the temperature of the water yourself. Too hot? Too cold?
