Dogs can bask in the sun, and there are many benefits for dogs to bask in the sun. Dogs basking in the sun can get vitamin D, relieve joint pain, help dogs relax, improve sleep quality, and keep warm. Vitamin D can promote the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the dog's small intestine, relieve dog joint pain, increase the dog's sense of well-being, regulate the animal's sleep cycle, and the heat of the sun can keep the dog warm. Basking in the sun can also kill the eggs on the dog, reducing the risk of the dog being infected by parasites. Sunbathing can also supplement calcium for dogs, and warm sunlight can also promote blood circulation and metabolism in dogs.

Precautions for dogs in the sun:

1. Although there are many benefits to basking in the sun, it should be moderate. Do not let the dog be exposed to the sun or for too long. Excessive exposure to the sun can cause heat stroke, sunburn, and increase the risk of skin cancer in dogs.

2. When the owner takes the dog out to bask in the sun, he can provide it with a shaded place next to it. When the dog feels hot, it will go there by itself to enjoy the cool.

3. Hairless dogs, short-haired dogs and some short-nosed dogs are not suitable for basking in the sun frequently, because they are more prone to injury or heat stroke.
