Myth-busting Monday Featuring Keiko! π€π€
β Myth: "Shaving all dogs during summer helps them stay cool."
β
Fact: For many double-coated breeds, their coat actually helps regulate body temperature and protects their skin from the sun. Shaving these breeds can increase the risk of sunburn and interfere with their natural cooling process.
Regular brushing to remove loose undercoat is often a better option than shaving. If you're unsure what's best for your pet, we're happy to help! βοΈπΎ
