Macomb County Weather: Honest Pros and Cons for Teddy Bear Owners
Winter
Macomb County averages 42 to 52 inches of snow per year — slightly higher than inner Oakland County due to modest Lake St. Clair influence. January lows typically run from the low teens to low 20s°F. The Teddy Bear’s plush, wavy coat handles Sterling Heights winters well; a lined outer layer on the coldest days completes the protection.
Summer
Sterling Heights summers are hot and humid from June through August, with July highs typically in the mid-to-upper 80s°F. The flat suburban terrain holds heat without lake breeze relief. Morning and evening walk scheduling is necessary June through August.
Heartworm Risk — Year-Round Prevention Required
Michigan is a heartworm-risk state. Macomb County’s Clinton River watershed and Lake St. Clair shoreline sustain mosquito populations through the warmer months. Your Sterling Heights vet will recommend a monthly preventative — discuss the appropriate protocol at your 48-to-72-hour wellness exam.
Grooming Cost in Sterling Heights
Professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks at approximately $52 to $75 per session. Consistent daily home care is non-negotiable between appointments.

Three Things Every Sterling Heights 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 $52 to $75 per session in Sterling Heights.
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.
