☀️ The 5-second pavement test most GSD owners never do
What most people don’t know: your dog’s paw pads can burn on hot pavement. If YOU can’t press your palm flat on it for 5 seconds, it’s too hot for their paws.
On hot days, walk early morning or late evening — or stick to grass and shade. Watch for limping or paw-licking afterward, and check with your vet if the pads look sore.
