We remind you that leaving our four-legged friends in the car is dangerous and not only in summer. The first signs of heatstroke in dogs are: wheezing, red or dark gums and tongue, confusion and instability leading to collapse, diarrhea, vomiting and even seizures that can lead to a coma. If the dog is not cooled down and treated quickly by a vet, he can risk dying.
