🐶☀️ Hot Weather Can Mean More Dog Bites

Did you know dog bites tend to increase during hot weather? Higher temperatures can make dogs more uncomfortable and reactive, making it even more important to recognize their body language and give them space. Research has found that dog bite incidents increase on hotter, sunnier days.

Dr. Craig Matticks, Medical Director of The Urgency Room recently spoke with CCX Media about dog bites becoming more common during the summer and what you can do if your child is bitten by a dog.🐾

If a dog bite does happen, prompt medical evaluation is important to reduce the risk of infection and determine if additional treatment is needed.

☀️ Heat Exhaustion vs. Heat Stroke: Do You Know the Difference?

Summer heat can be dangerous — especially when symptoms are ignored. Knowing the warning signs can help you respond quickly and know when it’s time to seek medical care.

🔥 Heat exhaustion may include:
• Heavy sweating
• Weakness or fatigue
• Dizziness
• Nausea
• Headache

🚨 Heat stroke is more serious and requires immediate attention. Signs may include:
• Confusion or changes in behavior
• Loss of consciousness
• Hot skin
• Seizures

Whether you’re working outside, exercising, enjoying a summer activity, or spending time with family, it’s important to know how to stay safe in the heat.
