Dr. Lera Clone explains that not only streets but also poolside pavers can become dangerously hot in summer and can burn dogs' paws and children's feet. She advises cooling pavers—for example by pouring extra rainwater or pool water over them—and notes this is especially relevant in hot climates like South Florida. The video is a short, conversational safety reminder.
Hey, guys. Dr. Laro here. So a lot of times people talk about, don't take your dogs out. The pavement may be too hot for your dog's paws and they could get burned. Totally true, and I totally agree with that. The other thing is, now that summer is here, there's a possibility that your dog is going to be out and about around the pool. And I don't know about you guys, but the pavement or these pavers get just as hot. And so sometimes we might forget that. Oh, yeah, you know, that's the street. No, you have to keep this in mind for the pavers as well around your pool. So it's a good idea to go ahead. If you live in South Florida like I do, take some of that extra rainwater that's been in your pool and go ahead and put it all around on the pavers to cool them off. If you have little kids, this will be helpful for them, too. So, like I said, keep in mind that you need to cool down the pavers because it's not just the street, it's also the stuff around. I hope you guys found this video helpful. Thanks for watching and have a blessed day.
