My Cinnamon is only 3 but she struggles with the heat also. She is slightly overweight at 8 lbs but not too much. The only time she has difficulty is in the heat. The rest of the year she is fine. We can only go around one block once it gets above 75 or so. If its in the 80s or higher we can only walk once the sun goes down. She also pants all the time in this weather even in the air conditioned house. Ive taken her to the vet twice for this and he says there is absolutely nothing wrong. |
