A dog’s puppy coat is generally shaved around 4-5 months, because by then vaccinations are done and hair grows quickly, making it a good time. But do not shave it all off; just shorten it.
Take the dog to a groomer on a sunny, warm day to avoid chills after shaving. Afterward, give some fish oil to promote better coat regrowth.
