Caring for your dog in Colorado Springs

Altitude, mountain weather, and Front Range tips

Altitude awareness

Colorado Springs sits at 6,035 feet. Dogs need extra water and acclimation time, especially visiting dogs.

Mountain winter

Springs winters bring snow and cold, but sunny days are common. Layer up and protect paws from ice.

Wildlife on trails

Bears, mountain lions, and rattlesnakes live in the foothills. Keep dogs leashed on trails and be aware.

Dry mountain air

Colorado's dry air dehydrates dogs faster. Always carry water and offer it frequently on hikes.
