Caring for your dog in Mesa
Desert heat, pavement burns, and Arizona safety
Extreme Arizona heat
Mesa summers exceed 110°F. Walk before sunrise or after sunset. Pavement can reach 170°F at midday.
Hot pavement burns
Test pavement with your hand. If you can't hold it for 5 seconds, it's too hot for paws.
Rattlesnakes and scorpions
Desert wildlife is active in warm months. Stay on trails and check yards before letting dogs out.
Constant hydration
Desert air dehydrates dogs fast. Always carry water and offer it every 10-15 minutes outdoors.
