6 Dog Feeding Tips For Hot Days:
Follow your dog´s appetite level and decrease his or her daily portion accordingly.
If you feed breakfast, skip it occasionally or at times when the weather is very hot for several days in a row.
Consider fasting once a week; or partial fasting such as giving your dog just one nice smaller juicy raw meaty bone to chew in the late evening or early morning in nice cool shade. For small breeds just part of a chicken neck is perfect.
Offer meals at room temperature or slightly cooler. Too cold is not good for your dog´s stomach.
Feed in a cool shady place. In the summertime, my pack refuses to eat before the sun settles down behind the treetops, but will gladly dive into their dishes once it cools off.
Avoid feeding fatty meats and warming foods. That includes not only certain meat types, but also warming herbs and spices, oatmeal, etc.

If you need to add oil to your dog´s food during summer, cold pressed flax seed oil is an excellent choice.
Energy Level and Loss Of Appetite
Unlike people, dogs often act based on their energy levels in terms of food intake. Again, my sled dogs are a great example. When they are in resting mode and just hanging around the dog yard on summer days, their energy requirements drop rapidly and often so does their appetite.
Yet so many folks don´t take that into consideration and still feed same portions or feed twice a day. The dog´s appetite is a clear indication of many factors including the fact that he or she may simply not need as much food (or energy from it) as you’re offering.
Unsuitable Summer Foods and Feeding Practices
Food Energetics
Foods have different energetics and some foods are warming, or even considered “hot,” which includes the popular chicken, turkey, trout or lamb. The same goes for some types of fruits and vegetables and herbs or spices.
Sweet potato, a fairly popular homemade dog food ingredient is among them, and so are some favorite herbs such as basil, rosemary, thyme, sage, cinnamon, turmeric or ginger. These foods are best left out of the dog menu during the hottest days.
Fatty Proteins
Some proteins are fatty, like the salmon that some dog owners in European countries are very keen on feeding, or even lean pork. Salmon is a very fatty fish. Even if you feed just the fillets, they are fatty.
My sled dogs, who live outdoors all year round, including during the subzero temperatures of Nordic winters, and who are in athletic training from September to May, eat salmon only in very cold conditions. On a 200 mile race, if the temperatures rise above the dogs´comfort zone (which often is still below zero) and the sun starts shining, they will turn down my offer of salmon snacks, but would die for whitefish or beef.
