I can guess what you’re probably thinking: “Macy, you wrote another newsletter intro about your dog?!” Well, yes. But I have a good reason. And before you respond, “This is a tech website. Write about tech!” I will implore you to scroll down a little to preview all of the great tech-related news and reviews I included below. (And then scroll back up to finish my intro, of course.) I’m not just writing about my pup because he’s unreasonably cute (he is) or because he’s the best boy (he is), but it’s also because his safety, and the safety of everyone’s beloved pets, is a critical concern this summer. Heatwaves and extreme temperatures pose a major risk to pets and humans alike. Our furry companions can actually experience heat-related illnesses like heat strokes and dehydration, as well as paw pad burns. I’m always mindful of the fact that the pavement can torch the bottom of my dog’s paws.
