Thanks for bumping this. The heat and humidity in NYC this weekend was quite high. My super, in his infinite wisdom, decided that June 1 was the date that he would install our A/C units. I went out and bought two fans, one facing right at my girl's couch and one tiny one in the kitchen where I was doing some painting.
When my girl kept panting and not being comfortable, I made my own version of the terry cloth "wet coat" that someone posted on here last week. My girlie sported a wet t-shirt for a couple of days. It did eventually dry but it seemed to help a lot.
The A/C is in now, along with the fan so she is feeling much happier.
My walker knows that the summer rule is a quick pee run and then the rest of her 30 minutes is an indoor visit. That way I know that both dog and walker are not getting overheated!
