Caring for your dog in Amarillo
High plains heat, wind, and Texas Panhandle tips
Extreme temperature swings
Amarillo is famous for dramatic weather: winter temperatures can drop below 0°F and summer peaks exceed 100°F. Have both cold-weather and hot-weather routines ready for your dog.
High plains wind
Amarillo is one of America's windiest cities. Strong sustained winds with blowing dust can irritate dogs' eyes and lungs. On high wind days, shorter outdoor sessions are advisable.
Severe storm season
The Texas Panhandle experiences significant tornado and severe thunderstorm seasons in spring and fall. Have an indoor shelter plan ready for your dog during storm watches and warnings.
Canyon trail caution
Palo Duro Canyon trails are rocky and rugged. Dogs should be on leash near canyon rim edges. Carry extra water as the canyon environment can be significantly hotter than the surrounding plateau.
