Before taking fall walks with dogs, prioritize your pet\u2019s health with these tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Hiking is a great source of fall exercise for pets, but if it\u2019s been a while since your dog\u2019s last wellness visit, a nose-to-tail physical exam is warranted. We might also suggest bloodwork to check for health conditions that can worsen during physical exertion or at high altitudes.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is your dog up to date on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/shots-schedule-a-complete-guide-to-puppy-and-kitten-vaccinations\/\">vaccines<\/a>? New environments equal new exposures, so make sure your pet is protected from infectious diseases like rabies and the dangers of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/the-rattlesnake-vaccine-should-your-pet-be-protected\/\">rattlesnake bites<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Because flying pests and parasites go hand-in-paw with exploring the great outdoors, proper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/back-to-basics-flea-tick-and-heartworm-prevention\/\">parasite prevention<\/a> is essential to protect your pet from heartworms, fleas, and tick-borne illnesses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fall Hiking Tips for Pets&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If hiking trails are calling your name, Auburn has hundreds of miles of scenic hiking trails for people and their adventure-loving pets. Once your pet gets a clean bill of health, it\u2019s time to gear up and choose a trail! Keep these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/hiking-or-backpacking-with-your-dog\/\">fall hiking tips<\/a> for pets in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start with shorter trails and gradually increase your distance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/making-life-easier-home-adjustments-to-assist-senior-pets-with-mobility\/\">senior pet<\/a>, stick to trails marked \u201ceasy.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use a fixed-length leash (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/taking-the-lead-the-dangers-of-retractable-leashes\/\">not a retractable one<\/a>), and always keep your dog under control.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure your dog wears a collar with accurate ID tags and have your pet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/safe-and-sound-the-importance-of-pet-microchipping\/\">microchipped<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow all leash laws and do not allow your dog to approach other animals or people.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Properly dispose of pet waste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don\u2019t let your dog wander off the trail or harm plants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take along your pet\u2019s essentials, such as clean drinking water, food and treats, and sunscreen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It gets dark sooner, so make sure your pet is wearing a reflective collar and coat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don\u2019t let your pet drink from rivers or other bodies of water.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Play it Safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lower temperatures make fall walks with dogs much more enjoyable, but pay attention to your pet\u2019s cues, and take frequent breaks for rest and water.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following symptoms could be signs that your pet is experiencing overexertion or developing altitude sickness, both of which can quickly escalate into an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowmanvet.com\/blog\/is-there-a-pet-emergency\/\">emergency<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Panting\/rapid breathing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vomiting and diarrhea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weakness and fatigue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pale gums<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Loss of appetite<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Irritability<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We want you and your furry sidekicks to thoroughly enjoy autumn walks with pets.
