As the winter comes to an end, we all have our sights set on the spring, which includes making sure your pup is ready for warmer weather. One thing that many pet parents overlook is the fact that dogs can get sunburned too!

Dogs don’t get sunburned quite like we do, because they are covered in hair, but there are a few places you might want to think about applying sunscreen.

No matter what breed you have, you should put a little bit of sunscreen on the tip of the nose. There’s nothing more irritating to a dog than a burned nose!

If your dog likes to lay on his back and roll around in the grass, place some sunscreen on his belly.

Hairless breeds need sunscreen all over their bodies! For more information, call your veterinarian Muskoka Lakes, ON.
