Keeping a puppy cool in the heat

Its 36 degrees at 4pm in Jomtien and Kuro is lying flat on the tiles like a dead fish. She is still a puppy so I worry about heat stroke more than I should.

Walks only before 8am or after 6pm, the pavement is too hot for paws. Do the 7 second test on the back of your hand first. Cooling mat in the crate, the cheap one from Shopee works fine. I wrap a frozen water bottle in a towel and she bite it and then sleeps on it.

Aircon at 26 not 22, the poodle coat is thick and she gets cold too. Dont shave her too short in summer, the coat protects from the sun. Our groomer say cut to 3cm and no shorter.
