Can dog fur actually keep dogs cool, as well as warm?
« on: 25/03/2019 17:04:08 »
Alex is keen to know this about our furry friends:

I have talked to several Husky owners who insist that their dogs thick fur insulates them not only from cold but also on a hot day, from heat. Could this be true?

Can anyone help?
