As the temperature rises owners of fur bearing breeds begin to realize their pets are hot. Mistakenly, many think that clipping these breeds down will help them be cooler. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
This time of year it's common to see these breeds 'blowing coat', meaning that massive amounts of undercoat are shed out at once. However, clipping is not the answer. Instead your professional groomer can remove that crazy amount of undercoat and help keep it in check year round.
This allows the coat to properly perform it's job of keeping the body cooler. The attached undercoat works like insulation keeping cooler air near the body while the guard coat reflects heat away. But when loose undercoat is not properly removed it impedes the coat from doing it's task.
Professional groomers provide so much more than a haircut. Talk to your groomer about booking an appointment for your fur bearing breed to keep them comfortable year round!

Grooming experts almost always advise against shaving double-coated dogs – but it can really help some overheated senior dogs cool down and feel better in the summer.

05/07/2023

Many people think shaving their dogs will help keep them cool through the hot summer months. However this is a huge mistake for most dogs, and shaving a double coated dog like a golden retriever actually interferes with the dog’s cooling process.

Shaving their fur can cause the dog to overheat, making them susceptible to heat stroke and has no real impact on cooling the dog down, in fact it can actually increase a dog’s body temperature and expose them to damage from the sun’s radiation. Double coated dogs have a soft, inner coat of hair close to the skin that serves as an insulating layer, by allowing more or less air to be trapped between the surface of the skin and the outer surface of the coat, it helps to keep them cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather.

Dogs will naturally shed a lot of the under layer and what remains will help capture air between the two coat layers, allowing the dog to regulate body temperature. When a dog’s core temperature is heated, blood vessel expansion helps bring the blood closer to the surface of the skin, which then releases heat into the air space. The outer coat, or guard hair, remains to protect the dog from sunburn, insect bites and decreases skin cancer risk.

Think Brush, Thin, Trim. Your dog will naturally shed a portion of their undercoat so help remove the hair through regular brushing to eliminate the dead hair, prevent matting and allow for better air circulation in his coat. Make sure to get past the guard hairs with a good deshedder brush. Keep dog’s legs and stomach trimmed of very long hair to enhance cooling. Dogs also release heat through the sweat glands in their paws. Keep the paws trimmed of excess fur in order to help the heat evaporate and aid in keeping the dog cool.

When the temperatures increase this summer:
● Make sure there is access to plentiful water and shade. Dogs rely on panting as
their primary temperature regulator and therefore lose body fluid through
respiration.
● Always check the temperature of the concrete before going on walks
● Exercise in the coolest parts of the day.
● Never leave a dog unattended in a vehicle in the summer, even for just a few
minutes.
