Keeping pets cool in this terrible heat?

Asked by ANef_is_Enuf (26839points) July 7th, 2010

I know that animals don’t cool themselves the same way that we do… but my poor dogs look so miserable! I’ve been doing the usual things like putting ice cubes in their water bowl and keeping them in the house and out of the sun. But would it cool them down if I hosed them off with some cold water? Or does that not affect them the same way that it does us?
