Adopting in Spokane, WA

Spokane's natural beauty and abundant outdoor recreation make it an excellent city for pet adoption. The Lilac City's shelters have many lovable animals waiting to explore the Inland Northwest with a new family.

With Riverside State Park, the Centennial Trail stretching for miles along the Spokane River, and four distinct seasons that keep life interesting, Spokane offers adopted pets an adventurous Pacific Northwest life.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

20°F to 33°F

Dec – Feb

Cold and snowy with heavy snowfall that can accumulate quickly. Insulated coats and paw protection are essential for pets during walks. The Centennial Trail is often plowed and remains walkable, but side trails may be impassable. Keep walks shorter and watch for ice under fresh snow.

Spring

32°F to 62°F

Mar – May

Snowmelt swells the Spokane River and can make riverbank trails muddy or flooded. The lilac blooms in May make the city beautiful and fragrant for walks. Temperatures are cool and comfortable, ideal for building up distance on the Centennial Trail with your pet.

Summer

55°F to 88°F

Jun – Aug

Warm, dry days with abundant sunshine make summer the prime season for outdoor pet activities. The Spokane River offers swimming spots for water-loving dogs, and the Centennial Trail is perfect for long walks. Wildfire smoke from regional fires can occasionally impact air quality, so check conditions before extended outdoor time.
