Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your question! Make sure Jasper has access to air conditioning on very hot days. You can also have Jasper groomed so that his coat is shorter. Fans and even installing misters outside will help keep Jasper cool. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
