YT Young Pup | Kudos feet were on Fire!! These last few days it's been like 100 degrees outside . So yesterday I asked Kudos if we wanted to go outside . Of course he did, so I put him on his extendo leash and started walking down the stairs from our apartment. We walked out from the carport, into the sun. All of a sudden Kudos starts running and crying. I didn't know what was going on. Kudos ran under a tree and started licking his feet. I ran over to him and he is kind of whining now. I looked at his feet and there was nothing there, I thought maybe ants were biting him. I was bent down and I put my hand on the ground and my hand was burning HOT. Kudos did not want to move so I picked him up and wet his feet/ legs to cool him down. I then took him out later that day, when there was shade and he was fine. And Kudos had to go to the bathroom pretty bad!! Kudos feet were on fire, it was a pretty crazy day for him!! LOL But he's okay now, we are being more careful. I have to pick him up and carry him to the shade!!

| Awww, bless him heart! And feet!! You could carry him, but you also could probably buy him some little summer shoes/sandals or something. Maybe check out what Karen has at Dog Boots | Dog Shoes & Dog Booties

| Would you have walked on the concrete in your bare feet in 100 degree weather. I know you learned your lesson but this is really a no brainer

| Bless his little heart. Could you just carry him to a grassy spot? I bought high top mesh sneakers for my girls that are a blessing for them when we are traveling and have no grasses to walk them on at times.

| I wait to walk mine after dinner so the pavement cools down. No grassy areas at all near by? Maybe you can find a nice shady walking path or park close to you to walk him at on hot days. I just saw that you're in AZ... I know it gets super hot there...so I'm no help!

YT Young Pup | Do any of you know if I could get booties from Wal-Mart. I need some for Kudos and I don't know where to get them.
