Dogs That Do Well in Warm Climates
Puppy Avenue is located in sunny Jacksonville, Florida. So naturally, most of our buyers are living in hot climates. It is good to be concerned about how your dog will react to high temperatures. Let’s dive right into dog breeds that love the heat!
German Shorthaired Pointer
This pup does great in many conditions. Their short hair keeps them cool and dry. If you’re looking for a dog who is up for an adventure, find out more about the German shorthaired pointer.
Great Dane
Regardless of their size, Great Danes love to snuggle. You can find them often searching for hot environments. Fireplaces, outdoors, and on your lap, Great Danes love the heat!
Border Collie
Have you ever seen a movie scene with a dog playing frisbee? It was probably a border collie. They have a unique double coat of fur. Sounds hot, but it actually is an extra layer that keeps off the sun. Border collies do well with lots of space to run, so make sure you have a nearby park if you’re considering adopting this breed.
Golden Retriever
A great family-friendly dog. Golden retrievers have a water-resistant coat, which makes them a lover of water. With their unique webbed feet, they have no trouble on rough terrain.
Labrador
Labs are exceptional dogs for both cold and hot weather. Their short-haired coat keeps them cool in the summer. Not to mention, they are constantly shedding off their coat. If you live in a hot climate, and don’t mind the shedding, a Labrador could be the perfect dog for you!
