Dogs in tropical countries

Question
Hi,
   I will be relocating to Malaysia and would like to know if the warm humid weather is something to be concerned with in regards to what dog breed is best suited for that environment.  More specifically, would a Australian Shepherd a suitable dog for this climate?
Thank you
Bob

Answer
Hi Bob, most dogs can adapt to different environments fairly easily.  It is only the dogs with the snub noses that you really have to be concerned about because they can't inhale as much air to keep themselves cooled down.  An aussie should have no problem adapting.  Hope this helps,
