Lake days and swimming adventures are part of summer fun—but cold water can be dangerous for pets, too.
Even on warm days, lakes, rivers, and streams can stay surprisingly cold, which can lead to fatigue, shock, or difficulty swimming—especially for smaller dogs, older pets, or those new to the water.

A few cold water safety reminders:
• Ease pets into the water gradually—don’t force a jump in
• Consider a life jacket, especially for boating or strong swimmers-in-training
• Watch for shivering, fatigue, hesitation, or difficulty getting out of the water
• Keep swim sessions short in colder conditions
• Always bring fresh drinking water (yes, even at the lake!)
• Rinse and dry your pet after swimming

Summer adventures are better when everyone gets home safe.
Stop in for life jackets, travel water gear, and summer safety essentials.

Looking for your next adventure with your four-legged hiking buddy? Here are three pet-friendly trails right here in Addison County worth exploring this summer:
🐾Snake Mountain (Addison)
A local favorite with rewarding views at the top. Bring water, keep pups leashed, and be ready for a moderate climb.
🥾Silver Lake Trail (Leicester/Goshen area)
A beautiful wooded hike with a peaceful lake payoff—great for adventurous dogs who love a longer trek.
🐶Weybridge Cave & Otter Creek Trails (Weybridge/Middlebury area)
Perfect for a more relaxed outing with scenic walking paths and plenty to sniff along the way.

Adventure tip: Pack water, p**p bags, tick prevention, and a collapsible bowl before you go.

Where’s your favorite local trail?

Skouts Honor did a great job removing most of the skunk smell for me, but I missed a spot by her ear. In this video I'm going back to retreat that area as well as treat her collar which also got sprayed.
