Fort Myers weather and what it does to coats.
Rainy summers, a wide river and thousands of canals mean damp dogs and mud. Grooming here is often about drying, tangles and skin comfort more than style.
- The wet season from roughly June through September brings daily storms, and dogs that stay damp are more prone to matting and hot spots.
- Dogs that swim in the Caloosahatchee, canals or ponds can pick up odors and algae, so a proper shampoo helps after outings.
- Sandspurs and burrs thrive in Lee County lawns and vacant lots, and they cling to feathered legs, bellies and ears.
- Hurricane season is a good reason to keep vaccine records, a recent groom and a trimmed coat in order before a storm threatens.
- Spread-out areas like Cape Coral and Lehigh Acres make a mobile groomer attractive, since a salon can be a long drive.
