Do you need to shave your puppy hair in summer to be cool? This will damage the skin and physical and mental health of the Dog!

When I was walking on the street recently, I saw many "hairless dogs". Their skin was immediately exposed to gas, and they received the kiss of the sun in hot weather. The shovelers will shave their puppy out of kindness due to the hot summer weather, but they don’t know that that is not good!

Many owners will shave their pets all in summer to make their cute pets cooler. But is that scientific research? There are also poop shovelers who leave a message board to ask Guo Mom, can she shave her hair?

Since dogs have many different types and many different situations, dog shovelers must have double standards!

Shorthaired dog: There is no need to shave completely, and after shave, the puppy is more likely to be burned by the sun!

Hairy Dog: Usually, it is not necessary to shave. If the puppy's hair is too thick and black, it can be thinned moderately. It's a very good choice when tied up!

In this case, the puppy can shave her hair!

It is often outdoors or in a cold, wet environment. Dogs with long hair can shave their hair. In this kind of natural environment, dogs are very likely to develop myiasis.

A puppy with often tied hair can also be shaved, but the more important thing is that the shoveler should often comb the hair of the dog, so that the knot can be reasonably reduced!

If your hair is too long and you have eyes covered, you will not shave immediately and will cause infection to the puppy's eyes.

Puppies have relatively serious dermatitis, and shaving is beneficial for treatment and mid-to-late repair. If it is not too serious, you can choose some shaved hairs.

1. Why don’t you need to shave your pet?

(1) The puppy does not have sebaceous glands on its hands

The most people often have a wrong idea. People sweat based on the pores of the skin, which can reduce heat and cool down. But I think the puppy does not have sebaceous glands on its hands. Dogs use heat pipes to dissipate heat based on their mouths and feet. Shaving their hair is useless for them.

(2) It is very easy to cause skin infection of puppy

After shaving off the puppy's hair, I think it will cause skin infections, skin allergies and even ulcers. Because of the lack of reasonable maintenance of hair, the puppy's skin is immediately exposed to gas, and itchy and dust will cause itchy skin allergies. If it is used to scratch the front paws, itchy and hot in summer, it will easily swell and inflammation, and it will be infected with bacteria, which will cause ulceration.

(3) It is very easy to cause a puppy to feel inferior

The shovelers will feel that shaving their puppy's hair can make them cooler. But after shaving, the puppy will feel very ugly, which will lead to a sense of inferiority. Even some puppies can cause neurasthenia.

(4) The hair of a puppy can be reasonably protected from sun protection

The hair of a puppy can not only resist infections in certain bacteria, bee pollen, floating dust, etc., but also reasonably protected from sun protection. When the puppy's hair is shaved and the dog's skin is immediately exposed to the sun, it is even more likely that the puppy will have red skin in the hot summer.

2. What should you pay attention to when shave your puppy?

1. It is best to send it to a beauty salon. Find a professional artist to clean the pet groomer.

2. Prevent the razor from burning the puppy during operation. The razor will become very hot during operation. It is necessary to prevent the razor from burning the puppy's skin.

3. Keep at least 2.3cm long coat. Moderate coat can help puppies avoid sunlight and can help them resist ultra-low temperatures at low temperatures.

4. Do not have to stick to the skin tightly. This is not only because the skin is very easy to burn by the sun because it is too short, but it is also very easy to infiltrate needle hair (referring to thicker and longer hair in the hair yarn, which has moisture-proof and maintenance effects) into the skin, which in turn can endanger new hair and can also cause dermatitis.
