Dog care tips for London

Keep your dog comfortable through London's seasonal changes.

Lake-effect snow

London gets significant lake-effect snowfall. Keep walks manageable and protect paws from salt and ice.

River safety

The Thames River has varying water levels and currents. Supervise dogs near the water, especially during spring runoff.

Summer thunder

London gets frequent summer thunderstorms. Plan outdoor time around weather and have a plan for noise-anxious dogs.

University area

The Western University area is busy with students. Keep dogs leashed on campus and watch for cyclists on shared paths.

Peace of mind, built in
