5 hydrating foods for your pet to combat heatwave 

Rising temperatures during a heatwave can impact your pet's health and cause dehydration. Here are five hydrating foods you can give your pet to combat heatwave. 

Watermelon 

This hydrating food is rich in water. Before feeding watermelon to your pet, remove all seeds and rinds to prevent choking hazards. 

Cucumber

Cucumber is a highly nutritious and hydrating snack for pets. You can serve it sliced or chopped into bite-sized pieces for your pet. 

Coconut water

Coconut water is rich in electrolytes, which help replenish fluids and provide hydration. You can give your pet small amounts of plain, unsweetened coconut water. 

Bone broth

Bone broth helps increase fluid consumption and hydration. It contains vital nutrients which help boost energy and immunity. 

Frozen yoghurt 

Plain yoghurt contains less lactose, which makes digestion easier for pets. It also has hydrating and cooling properties, making it an ideal summer snack.
