This is only with puppies who have not made the transition from puppy hair to adult hair. This will also happen with the color, you can have a puppy with a black coat and shave it to have a silver coat grow back. So if you have a puppy hair that is cottony and you shave it, it may grow back in smoother and straighter or it may grow back in cottony if that is what his adult hair will be like. Whenever you shave an adult dog, the hair will grow back the same. Usually you can tell by looking at the roots. For example, my Scampers who is 6 months old has fluffy wavy hair. However, from the roots to about half an inch the hair is smooth and straight and the texture itself is completely different while the rest of the hair which is about 3 inches is all fluppy and wavy. His adult coat is coming in and the fluffy wavy hair was just his puppy hair. So if I was to shave him, his hair will all come back straight and smooth. I hope this helps!! |
This is probably an old topic but it helped me a lot! My Poppy is four months old and I was starting to wonder if it is normal for her hair to be so fluffy, coarse and wavy. The roots are coming in very silky and I think my baby is going to be mostly tan, if not all tan! :):aimeeyork |
Nolee had a coarse wooly hair as a puppy. He is over 2 now and his coat is nice and soft. I guess it is a puppy stage. |
