Is the dog warm in clothes?

In fact, this is completely redundant. Because dogs have their own "winter clothes" and don't need the attentiveness of shit-sweeping officials. Biologically speaking, all dogs are subspecies of gray wolves, and their physical characteristics and many behavioral habits are basically the same as those of wolves. In winter, canines will have thick fur on their bodies, which can effectively keep them warm. A dog's fur has excellent thermal insulation properties and is divided into two layers: an outer layer of rough hair; and underneath the outer layer of rough hair is a soft, dense undercoat. The coarse outer layer keeps the undercoat dry in humid conditions. When autumn comes, the hair on the dog's body that is close to the skin will become thicker, and the hair on the shoulders will be so thick that even a finger cannot penetrate its skin. In spring, a large amount of undercoat and some outer coarse hair will fall off, just like humans change clothes with the seasons. The dog's fur is thicker on the entire shoulder and becomes thinner on the muzzle and legs. However, dogs also have a way to keep warm by placing their muzzles between their hind legs and tail and covering them with their thick tails. In addition, dogs have a foot pad that is far better than human "warm boots". The body temperature of a dog's foot pads can be maintained just above the freezing point at which tissue freezes. The temperature at the foot pad is independent of other parts of the body, so the body does not need to add additional heat. This saves energy and allows the heat to be concentrated where it is needed. In extremely cold environments, dogs can also reduce the flow of blood near their skin to store more heat. Among dogs, the cold-resistant masters, such as dogs, Samoyeds, Alaskans, etc., can sleep comfortably in an environment of minus 40 degrees.

Do you need to cut your dog’s hair in summer?

Dog’s fur can keep you warm, so what should you do in the hot summer? Cutting the dog's hair is actually unnecessary. Anyone who has ever raised a dog should know that when spring comes, dog hair will be scattered all over the house. When the weather is warm in spring, the down on dogs will naturally fall off, just like humans taking off their "cotton coats". Moreover, the outer layer of hard hair on dogs can play a very good role in insulation and heat dissipation, so cutting dogs bare is actually not conducive to their heat dissipation. In addition, dogs can regulate their body temperature through behavior. On hot days, we can often see dogs panting and looking tired. This is an effective way to dissipate heat and take away moisture. Dogs have an excellent ability to control their body temperature. They are as good as their ancestors, the gray wolves, and can adapt to a variety of climate types, so there is no need to worry at all. Stop! When it’s cold, be careful of your love for your dog when it’s cold.

Excessive cleanliness can also affect dogs

Today’s dogs’ living environment is generally very clean. However, it’s like “If you eat dirty, you won’t get sick.” "Same, in fact, excessive cleanliness is not conducive to the survival of dogs. modern microorganismsScientific research shows that the world around us is full of microorganisms, and humans and other animals are actually symbionts with microorganisms. Therefore, animals' bodies are not only their own, but also a place where microorganisms live. Many microorganisms are not only harmless but beneficial to living organisms. For example, most of the food digestion tasks in mammals are completed by intestinal microorganisms. Dressing your dog too cleanly, wearing clothes and hats is not good for his health. So, stop putting clothes on your dogs, they are better than you at beating the cold~
