General Care and NursingOverexposure to sun
Overexposure to sun
Direct sunlight out-of-doors is beneficial for puppies, but in summer or very hot climates, too much is harmful. The first sign of overheating will be increased panting. A dog cannot rid his body of extra heat as rapidly and efficiently as can a human being. A dog perspires mostly through his tongue rather than through the pores of his skin. As he pants, his tongue drips and, if he continues to pant, he loses a lot of body fluids. Give him water to drink and move him to a semi-dark, cooler place until the panting ceases. Ten to fifteen minutes of direct sunlight is sufficient for a young dog, unless he has shelter into which he can retreat when he gets too hot.
