Tips for Dog sitter e pet sitter a Madesimo
Practical tips based on altitude, season and the character of the place (1550 m · Valle Spluga). We don't name places we haven't verified: those get added once someone who lives there tells us about them.
For dogs, mountain villages often have no fenced area. What really works are the cycle paths along the river and forest roads closed to traffic, where you can walk without meeting cars. Keep two seasonal things in mind: the woods are busy during hunting season, and in some areas there can be poisoned bait — keep your dog on the lead if it picks things up off the ground.
At altitude you'll meet livestock guardian dogs. They aren't aggressive by nature: they defend. Give them a wide berth, put your own dog on the lead, don't run and don't shout. It's the situation tourists get wrong most often.
Above 1,500 metres the sun is fierce and deceptive: you can burn in half an hour even wearing a t-shirt, and the temperature drops the moment a cloud passes. High-protection sunscreen even in March, and always an extra layer in the bag. Summer evenings drop below ten degrees.
