I thought I read somewhere that if you cut a puppy coat too short, too early that it will mess up the coat color when he/she is older. I've looked everywhere this morning and can't find where I read that. Is this a myth or true??
Gizmo is almost six months old and he loves to be outside. With his long hair, he tends to get overheated very quickly, get mats on his legs and chest, and seems to find every sticker in the neighborhood.
I just think he would be much more comfortable and happy with a short cut. He will not be shown or bred. We're planning to do agility eventually, but that's it.
Anyone know if it's okay to cut his hair short?
