The relationship between hair carding and body temperature in dogs

Wandering in several dog forums, I found that there is a common misconception that although some dogs have thick hair, they will act as "insulation" in hot weather, so they can't be cut.

one. Although the dog's body does not have sweat glands, it still emits heat all the time. The lower the external temperature is, the easier the heat is. In most cases, the dog's body temperature is higher than the room temperature, the summer temperature is already high, if the dog's hair is too thick is definitely not conducive to the heat dissipation of the body.

It is wrong for more than one person to compare a dog's coat with a quilt covered with a popsicle. Because the popsicle itself is much lower than the outside temperature and does not dissipate heat, the quilt can play the role of thermal insulation. The body of a dog is just the opposite.

But the coat of many dogs can't be cut, like Xiao ha. However, we can discuss whether the hair on the dog's belly can be properly cut short.

two. Dogs with short mouths are hotter in summer, probably because their most powerful cooling weapons, their tongues are a little short, so dogs like Bugs always stick out a little tongue in summer.

three. Dogs and people alike, the more they eat, the more calories they produce. So in summer, people will feel that they have no appetite. However, gluttonous dogs like my family Doodle always eat what they give and how much they eat. Therefore, it is really necessary to control its diet in summer.
