Caring for your dog in Salt Lake City

Mountain weather, altitude, and outdoor safety

SLC winter care

SLC winters bring heavy snow and cold. Use paw wax, limit time in extreme cold, and rinse salt from paws after walks.

Dry summer heat

Utah summers are hot and dry. Carry water on every hike, avoid midday sun, and watch for overheating at altitude.

Wildlife awareness

Foothills and canyons have moose, deer, and occasionally cougars. Keep dogs leashed on trails and be aware of surroundings.

Creek water caution

Mountain creek water can carry giardia. Carry fresh water and discourage dogs from drinking from streams.
