Keeping Your Pet Cool This Summer

As temperatures rise, keeping your pets cool and comfortable is crucial. At The Winfield of Scottsdale, we prioritize pet safety and community living. Here are some essential tips to ensure your furry friends stay safe during the warm weather.

Practice Basic Summer Safety

Start by creating a comfortable environment indoors. Use fans or air conditioning to maintain a cool temperature. Ensure your pets always have access to fresh, cool water. You can even add ice cubes to their water bowl for an extra cooling effect. Make sure your pets have shaded areas where they can relax away from direct sunlight.

When outdoors, walk your pets during cooler times, like early mornings or late evenings. Hot pavement can burn their paws, so check the ground temperature by placing your hand on it. If it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for them. Watch for signs of overheating, such as excessive panting, drooling, or lethargy. If you notice these symptoms, bring your pet inside immediately and offer them water.

Local Pet Shops for Pet-Care

Supporting local pet shops is a great way to find specialized products that help keep your pets cool. Look for cooling mats, breathable pet clothing, and pet-safe sunscreens. These products are designed to provide extra comfort on hot days. By shopping locally, you also support the community and help small businesses thrive.

Encourage fellow residents to explore local pet-care options. This fosters a strong community spirit and ensures that everyone’s pets are well cared for. Enjoy the warm weather at The Winfield of Scottsdale, knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. Remember, a little preparation goes a long way in ensuring a happy and healthy summer for your furry friends!

At Winfield Scottsdale, AZ, we believe that a comfortable living space is one of the ways to provide an enjoyable life in all months of the year. Whether you enjoy apartment living or community living, these tips will help you make your home ready for summer.

Storing Winter and Spring Items, Bringing Out Summer Essentials

Transitioning your home from winter to summer is more than just putting the heavy blankets away. Start by storing your winter and spring items in a way that leaves your apartment looking a little less cluttered. Use vacuum-sealed bags for bulky clothing and linens and stackable storage bins for small items. These solutions are non-permanent and won’t damage your rental unit.

Then, unearth your summer staples. This can be light, airy textures for your linens and drapes or even summer decor that would tap into the outdoorsy, warm vibe of the season. And oh, do not forget to arrange your summer closet. Put what you wear most at the front so it’s easy to access.

Shop Local

Summer is an excellent time to experience locally while helping your town or city. In Scottsdale, there are numerous local shops and markets. Go to the Old Town Scottsdale Farmers Market for fresh produce and artisan goods, or look at the Scottsdale Quarter with upscale boutiques and dining.

Hang your mirror mosaic in a prominent place, such as above the sofa or bed, to add dimension to your decor.

Budget-Friendly Designer Looks

Take your time browsing through different stores and keep an open mind. With some luck and patience, you can find stylish pieces at a fraction of the cost of their brand-new counterparts. Plus, shopping secondhand is eco-friendly, reducing waste and giving pre-loved items a new lease of life.
