Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Great question, this is very very important in Frenchies! 1. Air conditioning and staying inside on hot days 2. Very short periods of exercise and chasing balls to prevent excessive panting and swelling 3. A spray bottle with cool water/hose or sprinkler /kiddie pool for Frank to go in when he is hot. 4. Fans at Frank's level so he can cool himself 5. Lots of areas of shade outside 6. As soon as Frank looks tired (ideally before he looks tired) stop playing or running 7. Ice-cube treats (frozen chicken broath) Best of luck with Frank!
