Caring for your dog in Aberdeen

Aberdeen-specific tips every dog owner should know

North Sea exposure

Aberdeen faces the North Sea. The beach and coastal paths can be very windy. A warm coat is essential for smaller breeds in winter.

River Dee safety

The River Dee flows through Aberdeen and can be fast-flowing after rain. Keep your dog on a lead near the river at Duthie Park.

Scottish winters

Aberdeen gets cold winters with occasional snow. Watch for icy paths and road salt, which can irritate paws.

Hazlehead community

Hazlehead Park has a large and friendly dog-walking community. Morning walks are the best time to socialise your dog.
