As temperatures rise, many dogs begin shedding their winter coatsโbut all that loose fur doesn't always fall out on its own.
When excess undercoat becomes trapped in the coat, it can reduce airflow, hold in heat, and leave your dog's coat feeling heavy, dull, or prone to tangles. This is especially common in double-coated breeds, but even shorter-coated dogs benefit from regular brushing during shedding season.
Regular brushing helps remove loose hair before it becomes compacted, while professional deshedding services can remove excess undercoat more thoroughly without interfering with the coat's natural ability to protect and regulate temperature.
Some signs your dog may be carrying excess undercoat include:
๐พ Increased shedding around the house
๐พ A coat that feels thick, dense, or heavy
๐พ Difficulty brushing all the way through the coat
๐พ More tangles, mats, or trapped debris than usual
Keeping up with brushing and routine grooming helps improve airflow to the skin, supports a healthier coat, and keeps dogs more comfortable throughout the summer months.
