Dog Health & Weather in San Antonio, TX
Live dog health conditions for San Antonio, TX — updated hourly.
your dog's briefing is ready.
Today's different from yesterday. Here's how.
Humidity is the real enemy for thick coats, not just heat. At 76°F and 68% humidity, their undercoat traps moisture and heat. Walking is fine, but save the run for a cooler day. Fetch in short bursts with water breaks.
High humidity makes allergens stick to fur instead of falling off. Your dog carries pollen and mold spores indoors on their coat. A quick wipe-down at the door prevents the itch cycle.

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.
