Seek medical help if there s no improvement within 30 minutes. Until help arrives, move the person to a cool place. Elevate the person s head and shoulders. Cover the person with a wet sheet, if possible, and fan him or her until the body temperature drops to 101 degrees or lower. Never leave them in a hot car with the windows up.
Dogs can suffer heatstroke and die in a confined space for even a short period of time.
Make sure that outdoor pets have shade and plenty of water. Walk or exercise your dog early in the morning or in the evening during cooler hours.
