I have a 4 yo/90lb akita/husky mix and am considering a job related
move to southern california from vermont.

Does anyone have direct experience moving a snow dog to a year round
warm environment?

I know it will mean some changes, but if the extra heat is going to
endanger his health I'm not going to take the job.

My vet says that with the right conditions he should be alright, but I
have my doubts.

Regards,
Stephen

When I take my Rottweiler to Florida in the winter for a few weeks, I leave
her indoors during the day with the ac on. Every day is not a hot day,
though, so sometimes she would lie down out in the yard in a shady spot.
When I walked her I would walked her early in the morning and again after
dinner at night when it was cool. She also minds the heat, but walking
before the sun comes out full force and then later when the sun goes down
seemed to work.
