Dog Health & Weather in Honolulu, HI
Live dog health conditions for Honolulu, HI — updated hourly.
Good morning, Honolulu dog ohana!
That 89°F asphalt around Ala Moana will toast paws, even with the clouds. And the UV at 11.7 is no joke!
Even though it's cloudy and 'only' 79°F, that 77% humidity makes it feel stickier for our thick-coated friends like Labs. Combine that with the 89°F asphalt, and paw burns are a real risk. Keep walks on grass or shaded paths today, especially with the extreme UV index of 11.7.
Did you know paws can burn in just 60 seconds on 89°F asphalt? That's the temperature of our blacktops today! Test it with your hand first.

Today's Health Notes
Breed-specific advice for Labrador Retrievers in today's conditions.
Warm is where thick-coated breeds start working harder to stay cool. They'll handle walks fine, but running or extended fetch will push them. Keep water available.
This is peak shedding season for double-coated breeds. Daily brushing saves your furniture and helps them regulate temperature. Use an undercoat rake — it's the right tool for the job.
Spring pollen clings to thick coats and gets carried indoors. Your dog becomes a walking allergen sponge. A quick brush after walks removes 80% of surface pollen before it transfers to your furniture and their skin.
Your thick-coated dog has energy to burn in warm weather. Channel it into structured exercise — heel work, fetch with obedience, or trail work. A tired brain beats a tired body.
