Arnt we trying to give small /minuscule edges to our dogs in keep and for show all the time? Even if it just makes U feel better in your head? lol.

Its not that black and white. Everyone understands that it doesnt prevent a dog from running hot at all.

Lol, superstition does make people feel better (I know, I have OCD )

Honestly though, I would think shaving a dog would make its skin more sensitive/vulnerable.

The armor-factor would concern me more than "overheating" does.

If you breed long-winded dogs, you don't have to worry about it when things go awhile

As far as the "weight" goes, I didn't say anything before, but there is NO WAY that "dog hair" weighs half-a-pound

It very likely weighs less than an ounce ...
