Imaginarynumber1 Posted June 17, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 17, 2017 That's s terrible thing to do to a dog, especially in the summer when it will easily sunburn without it's hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Posted June 18, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Well there is an Elizabethan collar on top of the shelves on the left, so hopefully that suggests it's in some kind of proper medical setting and was shaved for a legitimate reason.

Princess Serenity Posted June 19, 2017 #8 Share Posted June 19, 2017 It doesn't appear that the dog is in any pain. I don't understand why people are claiming its "abuse." I don't think shaving a dog is abusive. =/ I don't understand people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelnjones Posted June 19, 2017 #9 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Some dogs, its fine. Huskies it's very much not, and you will want to because they shed terribly. As said their second coat shouldn't be cut. Its a shield for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like travelnjones said, with some dogs it's ok, but breeds with a double coat shouldn't be shaved since their coats are what protects them from the elements. Without it they can sunburn, overheat, freeze, etc., and their coats will probably grow back less attractive than it used to be. The setting looks to be at a vet or groomer, so it was probably necessary, poor thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KNash Posted June 24, 2017 #12 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I have a husky and I don't think she'd be this skinny if I shaved her. That being said, I wouldn't shave her either because she has a double-coat and it may not grow back properly. I had a neighbor who shaved his malamute and that poor dog's hair never grew back. His fur looked like Einstein's hair, wirey and white. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmk1245 Posted June 25, 2017 #13 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I wonder, if cut finger(s) (pinky) of that dog owner(s), would it be hilarious and worth Instagram? Some dog owners deserve to be beaten to the pulp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
