Which kind of pet suits Kodaikanal

Start with the species, not the breed. Kodaikanal's coastal tropical climate means the air stays humid through much of the year, so coat and skin care need attention, which shapes how practical a dog's exercise routine is here.

Brush regularly — humidity makes mats and tangles form faster in longer coats.
