Don’t shave your dog! It DOES NOT help them stay cool, it actually makes it harder for them to regulate their body temperature.
This is a thermal image of a dog with a portion of its body shaved and the other portion not shaved. The non-shaved portion is at 24°C and the shaved portion at 30°C. The hair is present for several reasons, mainly for thermal regulation ☀🌡
Stop shaving dogs you're not helping them.
