The three most popular dog breeds in New Mexico are the Golden Retriever, Labrador, and Bulldog. Whether you have one of these popular breeds or some other kind of pooch, here are some summer dog care tips for New Mexico.
These tips are for both new pet parents or experienced dog owners in New Mexico. After all, it doesn’t hurt to be reminded of the important things once in a while.
On warm summer days, the temperature inside a vehicle can rise to dangerous levels within minutes. That’s why you should never leave your pooch unattended in a car, even with the window cracked open. A dog can develop heat stroke and suffocation very quickly if left alone in a car on a summer day in NM.
Another thing to keep in mind is that activity should be limited on hot days in New Mexico. Carefully choose the time when you head outdoors with your dog. It’s best to avoid the peak sunshine hours between 10 am and 4 pm. Instead, take your pet for a walk in the mornings and evenings.
Keep in mind that asphalt can get very hot in the summer and burn your dog’s paws. Walk your dog on grass if possible. Check the pavement for heat before allowing your dog onto it. Always carry water when you head outdoors to keep your dog well hydrated and cool.
New Mexico is blessed with beautiful mountains ranges that are perfect for hiking, fields of wild flowers that are a puppy’s paradise, and perfect warm summer days to enjoy with your dog. As long as you follow some basic precautions, you can safely enjoy the summer with your pet.
