海外「雪遊びを楽しむ犬」

Beware of unexpected dog excitement
Snow and frozen roads are slippery places even if you don’t bring your dog with you. There is a possibility that people and dogs suddenly appear in places like this, and dogs may get excited when they see other dogs.

If the dog gets excited at an unexpected time, there is a risk that both the person and the dog will get hurt, such as falling over the owner connected by the lead, so it is good to walk while checking the dog’s excitement level.
You can take a walk to a place with a good view
Falling down on slippery snowy roads or frozen roads can cause injuries to people and dogs.

In order to eliminate unexpected problems, it is also good to take a walk in a place where owners and their dogs can easily predict their movements by looking around, such as walking on a familiar road or slippery place, or taking a walk to a park or other place with a good view. In some areas, snow melting agents and antifreeze agents are used on snowy roads and slippery roads. While drugs make it easier to walk in these places, dogs can lick them and cause symptoms of poisoning.

If there is a possibility that the sole of the dog has a snow melting agent or antifreeze, please wash your feet thoroughly with enough water or lukewarm water when you come back from a walk.

Please refer to it when you take a walk on a slippery road with your dog in winter.
