Wag! Walkers know Monte Vista
During the summer, very hot daytime temperatures can result in heat-related illnesses for people and pets traveling on foot, especially if they are not properly hydrated or acclimatized to the heat. Take shorter walks at cooler times of the day and make sure you and your pup drink lots of water. Thunderstorms and even tornados and flash floods can occur during the warmer months. If these storms are in the area, take shelter, and wait for them to pass. Winters are relatively mild with temperatures usually well above freezing in the daytime, so you don't have to bundle up to take your dog out.
