To Shave or Not to Shave?
What every dog parent should know before trimming for summer.
Summer rolls in with sunshine, longer days, and rising temperatures.
However, for many pet parents, that sparks the same question every year:
“Should I shave my dog to help them stay cool?”
It might seem like a kind gesture:
Less fur, less heat, right?
But when it comes to your dog’s coat, the answer isn’t that simple.
Fur Does More Than You Think
Your dog’s coat is more than a fuzzy blanket – it’s an incredible natural system. For example, it provides insulation, protects against sunburn, and helps regulate body temperature.
Double-coated breeds (like Golden Retrievers, Huskies, or Border Collies) have two layers:
Shaving this combo can disrupt their ability to regulate temperature.
Additionally it may even lead to overheating or sunburn – exactly what you’re trying to prevent.
When Shaving May Be OK
For some dogs, shaving can be helpful – especially if:
In these cases, trimming – not full shaving – can help your dog feel more comfortable.
What’s the Better Alternative?
In summary, instead of reaching for the clippers, consider:
And of course – walks early in the morning or later in the evening when the pavement isn’t scorching hot.
Bottom Line: It’s About Comfort, Not Aesthetics
The goal isn’t to give your pup a summer “look” – it’s to help them feel good, move easily, and stay safe in the heat.
When in doubt?
Ask your vet or groomer. They can tell you whether a trim is safe or if a simple de-shedding session is the kinder choice.
Because at the end of the day, your dog doesn’t need to be shaved to feel the love.
They just need you to show up, pay attention, and help them stay cool – in all the right ways.
