Daviess County Weather: Honest Pros and Cons for Teddy Bear Owners
Winter
Daviess County averages only 8 to 14 inches of snow per year — very mild for Kentucky. January highs in the upper 30s to low 40s°F. The Teddy Bear’s soft, wavy coat handles Owensboro winters comfortably without heavy outerwear.
Summer
Owensboro summers are hot and humid with July highs reaching the low-to-mid 90s°F. The Ohio River valley amplifies summer humidity. Morning walks before 8am are necessary from June through August.
Heartworm Risk — Year-Round Prevention Required
Kentucky is a high-risk heartworm state. Daviess County’s Ohio River valley location sustains mosquito populations well into fall. Your Owensboro vet will recommend a year-round monthly preventative — this is not optional. Start the protocol at your 48-to-72-hour wellness exam.
Grooming Cost in Owensboro
Professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks at approximately $46 to $72 per session. Consistent daily home care is non-negotiable between appointments.

Three Things Every Owensboro Teddy Bear Owner Must Accept Before Day One
Daily grooming is permanent. The Teddy Bear coat grows continuously and tangles in 48 hours without daily maintenance. A slicker brush and steel comb every single day. Professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks at $46 to $72 per session in Owensboro.
Dental disease is the #1 long-term health cost. The Shih Tzu jaw is small, teeth crowded, tartar accumulates fast. Daily tooth brushing starting in the first week is the only effective prevention. Budget for professional dental cleanings beginning around age 2 to 3.
Eye care is a daily routine. Daily gentle cleaning at the inner corners, hair kept trimmed from the eye surface weekly. Consistent, not complicated. This is what separates a healthy 14-year-old Teddy Bear from one with chronic eye issues.
