Caring for your dog in Miami

Tropical heat, humidity, and year-round outdoor tips

Heat stroke prevention

Miami's heat and humidity can be dangerous for dogs. Walk during cooler hours, never leave dogs in parked cars, and watch for excessive panting, drooling, or wobbling.

Hydration is critical

Dogs dehydrate fast in Miami's tropical climate. Carry a travel water bowl on every walk and ensure fresh water is always available at home.

Hot pavement warning

Miami asphalt can reach extreme temperatures. Test it with your hand. If it's too hot to touch, your dog shouldn't walk on it. Stick to grass or shaded paths.

Hurricane season prep

Miami's hurricane season runs June through November. Have an evacuation plan that includes your dog, keep a go-bag with food and meds, and ID your pet.
