Great suggestions,, the heat can be a killer to any animal, but particularly to those with naturally heavy coats. The same suggestions can be used to help keep your dogs, cats, whatever cool during a heat wave. Just putting old mismatched marble or other stone tiles in a dog's dog house will do alot. You can get odds and ends very cheap at flooring suppliers.
I like the frozen 2 liter bottle idea, cheap and easy and can be refrozen every night to be put right back in the next day.
Another note, while we think ice water may be a good way to help our pets cool off, may animals such as horses, can get very bad stomach cramps from water that is too cold, cool water is better. Keep water dishes that are outside, in the shade, and refresh the water often.
Stay cool!!!!!!!!!!!
