SHAVING bulldog in keep. (Only reply if you've exp or have knowledge in it.)

You can shed an 1/8 to 1/2 lb by shaving depending on the coat density of the dog. If folks were still over it was because they didn't call their weight correctly. Same thing rings true with running hot.

It has nothing to do with cosmetics.

If you need to lose 1/2 a pound, it's because you didn't call the weight correctly to begin with.

Whatever factor hair has in running hot is very minimal at best.

Again, cosmetic OR not able to call the right weight OR silly superstition. Thought I'd toss that out there in light of other comments.
