I don't know about in the UK, but the general rule in Australia is that if it is over 35-37 Degrees[C], you don't take the dog, and rather go back to the good ol' cane.

Hello list,I have a number of dog lovers in my list of Facebook friends and there has been a lot of comment about being careful not to make dogs walk on tarmac footpaths which may be melting in the hot weather.I'm not a guide dog user myself but I'm curious about how those of you with dogs avoid this problem. Clearly you still need to get out and about but can't easily tell whether patches of tarmac are melted and presenting a hazard to the dog's feet.Mike
