Mission Briefing

WOOF! Agent Mish here. Did you hear about the astronaut dog who went outside during a heatwave? He needed SPACE to cool down! BADUM-TSS 🥁

Listen up! It's getting HOT HOT HOT up here on the S.S. Dog Sitting Manchester, and I'm not just talking about my STELLAR comedy routine! Peggy keeps trying to get me to focus on the SERIOUS stuff about summer safety, but I keep getting distracted by all these COOL puns!

Sun's out, tongues out — but safety first. Here's how to keep Manchester pups cool, comfortable and smiling.

Mission Log

🌅 Walk Smart (Don’t Roast Those Paws!)

  • Best times: Before 08:00 or after 20:00; pick shade + grass.
  • Temperature rules: 25°C = caution; 27°C and over = indoor day.
  • Pavement check: Can't hold your hand down 5 seconds? Too hot for paws!

Quick jingle: “If it’s hot enough to fry eggs, it’s too hot for puppy legs!”

🕵️ Heat‑Stress Detective (Operation Cool Dog)

  • Early signs: Heavy panting, drooling, bright‑red gums, wobbly moves.
  • Emergency (Vet ASAP): Pale gums, vomiting, collapse or seizures.

Agent note: "If your pup looks like they danced three discos—investigate pronto!"

💧 Hydration Station

  • Ice cubes = Space asteroids
  • Water in kibble = Dog cereal
  • Chicken broth = Flavour explosion
  • Multiple bowls = Treasure hunt

Quick Check: Sticky gums or skin that won't spring back? DEHYDRATED!

🚗 Cars: Absolutely NOT

  • A parked car reaches 45°C+ in minutes—windows open don't help.

Agent Mish in Liam Neeson's voice: “If you leave your dog in the car, I will find you and I will not accept your cuddles.”

💦 Emergency Cooling (Mish Method!)

  1. Move to the shade FAST!
  2. COOL water (not cold!)
  3. Fan to boost cooling.
  4. Small sips of water.
  5. NO wet blankets! They trap HEAT!
  6. GET TO THE VET

Peggy’s rule: Cool the pup gently, don't freeze-blast!

🧭 Manchester (Local Intel)

  • Skip hot pavements; choose shady woodland and grassy routes.
  • Warm spells = avoid blue‑green algae; follow local warnings.

Ground feels like a griddle? Solve the riddle and reroute!

✂️ Doodle Coat Care (Floof Management!)

  • Brush mats: Remove excess hair that traps heat.
  • A tidy trim = Classy and COOL.
  • Pet-safe sun cream on noses/ears.

Mission motto: "On a hot day- too much hair...is a dog's worst nightmare!".

🏠 Indoor Enrichment (Brain Games!)

  • Short training, scent games, puzzle feeders.
  • When it's HOT out, keep your pup entertained INDOORS.

Agent Mish PSA: "Trade outdoor fetch for indoor 'sniffari'! Maximum treatos, minimal meltdowns."

✅ Mission Summary (Quick Card)

  • Morning and evening walks; 25°C caution, 27°C+ indoors; pavement test.
  • Spot heat stress early; emergencies to the vet ASAP.
  • Frequent hydration, frozen enrichment!
  • Cars = NO-GO.
  • Cool gently with water and air—not ice baths.
  • Smart grooming, and stay off hot surfaces.

Stay cool, stay safe and stay HILARIOUS! WOOF OUT! - Agent Mish 🚀

Until next time,

Agent Mish 🐾
