Winter months are colder with more rain and you will need to dress for the weather to take your dog out regularly for walks. Summers present a different issue as it is very hot and humid. During the middle of the day when temperatures soar, it can be uncomfortable and even dangerous to take your dog for a long walk. Make sure you and your pet are well hydrated, shaded, and do not overexert yourselves.
