It is no surprise that summers in Plano can be very hot. You need to know how to protect your pooch so that your dog is comfortable and well as protected. By following a few tips it will be easy to do this, and your dog will thank you for it.

Exercise Times

Remember that you need to be conscious about exercise times. The hottest part of the day is the worst time for your dog to be outside exercising. Allow your dog to exercise during the morning hours or in the evening, and even then use shade as a way to give them a break.

Paw Protection

Concrete is never good on anyone’s feet – and this includes the paws of your dog. Go to the pet store and purchase booties or some kind of paw protection, such as adhesive pads, so that your dog can walk along the pavement without burning paws.

Hydration

Keep your dog hydrated at all times. This includes providing access to water nonstop, using wet food in combination with dry food during feeding times, and knowing the signs of overheating. If your dog is starting to pant excessively, it’s time to cool him down and give him a drink.

Bug Control

Many people forget that there are a lot of bugs outside during the summer months. You can do a lot to protect your pooch by making a visit to the veterinarian to talk about prevention medication. This includes protecting against threats such as fleas and ticks as well as heartworm, which can be transmitted by a mosquito bite.

In Plano, you are situated near a variety of lakes. This includes Lewisville Lake to the west,  and Lake Ray Roberts and Lavon Lake to the east. If there is any kind of flooding that occurs as a result of too much rain or an overflow of these lakes, your home could be in danger.

It can be very expensive to make repairs to your home after a flood. The water may have damaged the exterior of your home, drywall, carpeting, and more. It may have also damaged furniture and other belongings.

Homeowners have gone bankrupt trying to make these repairs and you don’t want to fall into the same problems. This is why it is cost effective to buy flood insurance. Your homeowner’s insurance policy doesn’t provide this coverage and you don’t want to be without it, especially because of where you are located in Texas.

Flood insurance policies can be very affordable and provide you with significant amounts of protection. This way, if your home does suffer from a flood, you can make a call to file a claim. From there, you can obtain the needed funds to make the repairs to your home and replace what has been damaged from the flood.

You can afford flood insurance, especially when you work with an agent who is going to help you find the best policy.

At Paragon Insurance Agencies, we can help you to find a policy that is affordable. We will talk to you about levels of coverage, make comparisons between the different insurance companies, and answer any questions that you may have. This will ensure you have the coverage needed to protect your property against any loss that could occur.

We like to brag that everything is bigger here in Texas. We are a big state with big goals and as business owners, most of us would like to see our businesses get bigger. Well one thing we don’t want to see get bigger are our commercial insurance premiums. If you are a business owner in the Lone Star State, here are three easy ways to save on your commercial insurance without sacrificing coverage.

1. Get an insurance review. Getting a review is important so you know exactly the coverage you currently have. This will set the basis of your current coverage and allow you to better compare if another rate is indeed better.
2. Compare. Once you know you exact present coverage, you can then compare the policies of multiple companies. This is simple to do with an independent insurance agency that can search out quotes from a variety of insurance providers.
3. Select a Money-Saving Payment Option. An easy way to save money on your business or personal insurance is by paying annually or even by electronic direct deposit.
