Why would a dog want to lie in the hot sun when it's 100 degrees outside?
Dogs can seek out patches of sunlight even on hot days because it provides relief from stiff and achy joints.When I let my 11-year-old long-haired Chihuahua/papillon mix outside to do his business, he will lie in the sun on hot stone until I pick him up and bring him inside. I can't leave him out for any length of time i
for fear of his having a heatstroke. What makes a dog want to get so hot and not come in where it is cool?Dogs and cats love to sunbathe and often will search for patches of sunlight in the house to “nap on.” As they age, though, they actually may seek more warmth to get relief for While my 12-year-old dog, Buster, has always loved to sunbathe, he has wanted to be outside more in his senior years. Your dog is likely doing the same thing, which I know seems odd with our summer temperatures.The good news is most dogs and cats know when they have had enough sun and will ask to be let back inside the house. But please keep a watchful eye on your senior dog. Puppies, sick pets and senior pets are much more susceptible to heatstroke than healthy adult dogs.
