Can your dog enjoy the snow safely?

• Traditional snow dogs absolutely must have snow session at some point in life. We're talking Huskies, Bernese Mountain Dogs, Great Pyrenees, Newfoundlands, Akitas, and Elkhounds just to name a few. These guys are most at home on the white stuff and they just look like they belong there.
• Most med-large breed dogs do ok.
• Many water loving dogs also love the snow. Like Golden & Labrador Retrievers, who's long water shedding coats also tolerate snow really well.
• Really any dog with a decently dense coat will enjoy a romp in the powder
• We'll always bring blankets and take breaks to warm up paws & de-snowball bellies, but some dogs still can't handle the cold.

Are you flexible in your scheduling or willing to drive?

• • Snow in the Denver is often fleeting, dumping a foot over night and then melting off the next day. So rescheduling may be necessary to get the perfect "nice day after a blizzard" timing.
  • Or we can drive to the mountains, where the snow is more predictable but the air temps are cooler.
