hakunamatata Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 When we humans sweat we lose salt, dogs do not sweat as we know but do they need any extra salt intake in very hot weather? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't seem to suffer any side effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThĆ©iĆØre Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Some of the salt has been converted to chlorine but I doubt it's much higher than the supplied tap water chlorine level.Are your dogs white? [;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valB Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 We have bought some Rock Sulpher which we add to his water. We bought it from UK and it is especially made to help to keep them cool in hot weather.One small piece into the water and it slowly dissolves over a couple of days so just keep giving fresh water with the Tablet still in the water bowl.
