Many people believe that shaving their dog in the summer will help them stay cool. However, this is not always the case.
The breed of your dog: Some dog breeds have double coats that help them stay cool in the summer.
Older dogs and puppies are more sensitive to heat and may not tolerate being shaved as well as younger dogs.
If you live in a hot climate, shaving your dog may be a good option. However, if you live in a cooler climate, shaving your dog may not be necessary.
If your dog has any skin conditions, shaving them may make the condition worse.
The best way to decide whether or not to shave your dog is to talk to your veterinarian. They can help you make the best decision for your dog's individual needs.
There are other ways to keep your dog cool in the summer, such as providing them with plenty of shade and water, and brushing their coat regularly.
