The Instagram story has a post with an adorable dog sitting with a sad stature and the quote read, ?I wish there were tougher laws for people who hurt animals.? This signifies that the bodybuilder and owner of three arctic breed dogs, is concerned for the health of animals and the treatment they face by humans. O?Hearn who has two Huskies and one Timber, recently also did a YouTube video with Emmy Award-winning veterinarian Jeff Werber, on how to protect dogs during summer.

The video discusses everything from, the right temperature to take the dog for walks, shaving the fur of your pet to taking them on a swimming spree. O?Hearn showed his concern by saying, ?I worry about the temperature outside in, here in California it is hitting the 90s now.? Jeff Werber, who has 5 dogs himself, said, ?If it?s too hot for you it is too hot for your dogs. If you are gonna be overheated, your dog is gonna be overheated.?

According to Werber, dogs sweat through their nose and paws. If it’s too hot they sweat excessively and that is the problem. The doctor also mentioned that shaving down your Arctic breed dog in the summer is going to do more harm than good since the fur is a heat insulator.
