Pets and Beaches

Now is a great time to take your dog to the beach. Please remember that the sand can be extremely hot, and it can easily burn the pads on your dog’s feet. So, avoid the beach in the middle of the day. Early mornings or early evenings are best for your dog. Remember that drinking ocean water can cause terrible upset to your pet’s stomach. Don’t forget to check local ordinances, as some towns have restrictions regarding dogs on their beaches.
