When it comes to caring for a Caucasian Shepherd dog in the summer, there are several important things to keep in mind:

1. Ensure sufficient water: Make sure your dog always has access to clean and fresh water. In the summer, your dog can quickly become dehydrated, so it’s important to ensure he has sufficient hydration.
2. Avoid excessive sun exposure: Caucasian Shepherd dogs have a thick coat that can protect them from cold temperatures, but in the summer, this can become a problem. Avoid prolonged sun exposure and ensure your dog has sufficient shade to rest in.
3. Regular brushing: It’s important to brush your dog regularly to remove loose hair, dirt, and debris. This can help prevent your dog’s coat from becoming too warm and can help prevent fleas and other parasites.
4. Trim the coat if necessary: If your dog has a very thick coat, it may be necessary to trim the coat to prevent your dog from becoming too warm in the summer. Consult with your vet or a professional groomer on the best way to do this.
5. Check for ticks and other parasites: Ticks and other parasites are more prevalent in the summer, so it’s important to check your dog regularly for ticks and other parasites. Use a tick and flea preventative if necessary to protect your dog.
6. Provide sufficient exercise: Make sure your dog gets sufficient exercise, but avoid intense physical activity during the hottest hours of the day. Instead, opt for early morning or late evening walks when temperatures are cooler.
7. Watch for signs of overheating: Keep an eye on your dog for signs of overheating, such as panting, drooling, and lethargy. If you think your dog is overheating, immediately bring him to a cool, shady spot and offer him water. When in doubt, always consult your vet.
