Sugar Glider and Una's climate

Weather shapes a Sugar Glider's day here more than any breed guide will tell you. With crisp hill weather is comfortable for most dogs but harsh for short-coated ones in winter, a breed this size manages fine, as long as shade and water are never far. Older pets may need joint support as cold can stiffen movement.

Grooming a Sugar Glider through the cold winter season in Una

Let the weather set the grooming schedule, not the calendar. Crisp hill weather is comfortable for most dogs but harsh for short-coated ones in winter, which means coat and skin want checking more often through the cold winter season. On a smaller coat, skin irritation shows up well before matting does. Provide a warm, draught-free sleeping spot and a coat for short-haired breeds in winter.

Which kind of pet suits Una
