    Siberian Haskie's Coat

    • 1066 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Siberian Huskies come in a variety of colors and patterns, usually with white paws and legs, facial markings, and tail tip. The most common coats are black and white, then less common copper-red and white, grey and white, pure white, and the rare "agouti" coat, though many individuals have blondish or piebald spotting. My own view is that you should never shave a Siberian Huskie’s coat. Though I concede that this breed tends to overheat in the hot seasons, I still maintain that you should never shave their coats. For example, I live in Washington state where during the summer my dog splashes around in a kiddie pool so he doesn’t overheat.…
