#3 – Pug
This snub-nosed breed is prone to obesity, which makes it even more difficult for them to breathe and cool down.
Black Pugs are especially prone to heat stroke. Don’t let them run around too much in the heat of the day.

My 7 month old GSD experienced 20°c today for the first time in her life and she struggled playing and hid under the trampoline. She’s a been a thirsty girl today.

Any short nosedive breeds. My past neighbour had a boxer called Frazier and he wore a wet towel when the weather was hot

The majority of those breeds are short muzzled, no wonder they don’t do well in heat. Poor dogs can’t even breath normally…
And for those who own dogs with thick fur in a hot country, shame on you. Those breeds aren’t made for this. Please get a dog which suits you and your countries conditions.

All dogs just not be subjected to excessive heat. Hot cars being a fine example! Don’t take your dog out in the heat of the day. It is cruel.
