Canine FAQs Section
Q: How often should I bring my dog in for a check-up?
A: We recommend annual wellness exams for adult dogs and twice-yearly visits for senior dogs. Puppies should have more frequent visits during their first year for vaccinations and development checks.
Q: How can I protect my dog from the heat in Utah?
A: Salt Lake City summers can be tough on dogs. To keep your pup safe:
- Avoid midday walks—opt for early morning or evening.
- Always provide fresh water and shade.
- Never leave your dog in a parked car, even for a few minutes.
- Watch for signs of heatstroke: excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, or collapse.
Q: Are there specific vaccinations my dog needs in this region?
A: Yes. Core vaccines include rabies, distemper, parvo, and adenovirus. We also recommend leptospirosis and bordetella (kennel cough), especially if your dog is social or active outdoors. Ask us about rattlesnake vaccines if you hike with your dog.

Q: Does my dog need flea, tick, or heartworm prevention in Utah?
A: Absolutely. Ticks are common in the mountains, and mosquitoes (which carry heartworm) thrive in warm months. We recommend year-round flea, tick, and heartworm prevention for your dog’s protection.
Q: My dog loves hiking. What should I watch out for?
A: Utah trails are great, but be cautious of:
- Overheating and dehydration
- Paw pad burns on hot surfaces
- Rattlesnakes and foxtails
- Wildlife encounters
We’re happy to help you prepare a trail-safe first-aid kit and vaccine schedule.
