Summer is here, which is a tough time for the furry Silver Fox Dog. At this time, parents also consider changing their Silver Fox Dog into cooler "summer clothes." So I started with the hair of the industrial silver fox dog~ But should I cut the hair of the silver fox dog or shave the hair of the silver fox dog? This also needs to be considered from the silver fox dog's own situation.

Under what circumstances should a Silver Fox puppy be shaved?

1. Silver fox dogs have serious skin diseases.

2. The hair of the silver fox dog has been severely adhered and cannot be combed out, which may cause skin diseases.

What are the disadvantages of shaving a silver fox dog?

Damage to hair follicles: It may be better to ask a professional beautician to shave the dog's hair. If we want to use a clipper to shave the dog's skin, the damage to the hair follicles of the dog will be very serious. of. After damaging the hair follicles, the new hair of your dog will lose its original luster and become unhealthy.

Loss of the outermost layer of protection: After the Silver Fox Dog is shaved, light will directly shine on the skin when taken out. Everyone knows that people need to apply sunscreen in summer to prevent ultraviolet damage. Silver fox dogs cannot or do not need to apply it because the surface of their skin is protected by fur. Moreover, the hair on the Silver Fox Dog's body also has a thermal insulation effect.

​Remind you:

There is no special reason why Silver Fox dogs need to be shaved. In summer, it is enough to cut the Silver Fox dogs’ fur shorter. If the dog's hair itself is very long, just cut it to 2-3 centimeters during grooming, so that the dog can stay cooler without getting sunburnt. Of course, short-haired silver fox dogs do not need to be shaved~~
