The awkward period of dog lanugo hair

For most dog puppies, when they are about 6 months old, their lanugo hair begins to fall off little by little, and new hair grows back little by little, lasting about 3 months During this period, there must be a lot of hair in the house, which is the so-called "embarrassing period", which makes our owner very headache. Since pets have needs, some pet shops will cater to your needs and recommend shaving the lanugo. Most of their reasons are that "the hair will grow brighter after shaving the lanugo" and avoid the trouble of hair loss, etc. The editor does not agree with this but does not refute it, but from a health perspective, dogs (especially puppies) suddenly lose the protection of their hair and are very prone to colds, sunburns, skin patches, and even... Infectious skin diseases (if the blade is not changed, the probability is really high).

Taking some vitamins and lecithin can repair it a little. Therefore, the editor does not recommend shaving the dog’s fetal hair.
