On a Code Orange Day be careful with the dog walks; you should limit their walk to slow and easy ones. If a dog is old or very young, this is especially important. Don’t let him have a lot of water before or after the walk if it is 30 minutes or longer.

If you usually walk your dog around 30 minutes, you should limit the walk to about 15-20 minutes on Code Orange days.
You and your dog can enjoy playtime inside after a few ice cubes. Be careful with the humidity, even on a Code Orange day – your really old or young dog should be limited on the time spent outside.

On a Code Red Day, limit your outside time with the dogs to enough time for the dog to do #1 and #2. If a dog is old or very young, this is especially important. Their walks should also be slow and easy ones. Don’t let them have a lot of water before
or after the walk if it is 30 minutes or longer. Use ice cubes as a source of water. Again, outside time should be limited to letting the dog do its business with playtime inside after a few ice cubes.

Be careful with the humidity, especially on a Code Red day – your really old or young dog should be very limited on the time spent outside.
