It's a "Dry Heat"
The Las Vegas Valley is comprised of nearly 600 square miles. While a dry heat dominates between April and August, spring and winter seasons are typically mild and pleasant. Desert winds are sometimes prevalent and summer temperatures can reach as high as 120 degrees, but there is very little humidity. This ideal climate promotes plenty of outdoor activities ranging from golf and tennis to skiing, swimming, hiking and boating.
Caring for Pets in the Desert
Pets need special care when adapting to and living in a desert climate. Limit the amount of time your animals spend outside during the hottest parts of day and always provide plenty of fresh water and shade. Remember your pets' sensitive foot pads, which can easily burn on hot concrete or dirt during the hottest times of day.
Pet Licensing
Licenses are required for all dogs and cats in Clark County. Residents are limited to three adult dogs and three adult cats per household. You may have up to six dogs and cats if you obtain a special pet fancier's license.
