Kenton County Weather: Honest Pros and Cons for Teddy Bear Owners
Winter
Kenton County averages 15 to 22 inches of snow per year — moderate for Kentucky. January highs in the mid-to-upper 30s°F. The Teddy Bear’s double coat handles Covington winters well.
Summer
Covington summers are hot and humid with July highs reaching the upper 80s to low 90s°F. The Ohio River valley amplifies summer humidity. Morning and evening walk scheduling is the standard practice from June through August.
Heartworm Risk — Year-Round Prevention Required
Kentucky is a high-risk heartworm state. The Ohio River corridor retains mosquito habitat well into fall. Your Covington 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 Covington
Professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks at approximately $55 to $82 per session. Consistent daily home care is non-negotiable between appointments.

Three Things Every Covington 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 $55 to $82 per session in Covington.
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.
