Why you should NEVER shave a Husky? Dogs do not sweat like humans. A dog cools itself by panting from the mouth, sweating at the paws and the blood in their pretty ears. So if you think about shaving your Husky in order to cool him, you are not helping. Siberian Husky's have almost no pigmentation in their skin. So when you shave him, you expose his sensitive skin to the sun.
