You then just educate and pray and when they insist you have then sign a waiver and just do it. You cant fix stupid or change someone's mind 90% of the time.

      The coat will never grow back the way it once was even if it looks that way after a year or two, the insulation part of the coat will not work as well now. If only it were that simple, this puts the dog at a risk of skin cancer from overexposure to sun even in small amounts because the skin is exposed and will never be protected as well by the coat as it once was unfortunately. This is why shaving double coated dogs is a huge deal.

    Our husky chow mix got a skin infection and lost a huge patch of hair on his back. The infection was treated and his skin healed and very slowly his guard hairs grew back over months. But his undercoat never did. We thought maybe the skin was damaged or something but the vet said its not uncommon for it to just never grow back properly, even when it's just shaved off and there's no damage.

      No, that's a myth, double coated dogs do not mat, they just accumulate undercoat which has to be removed. And double coated dog breeds do not have their coat grow back fast nor even, it could take years and lots of work to recover the coat. Other dogs with simple coats like poodles maltese yorkies etc. Can be shaved down and their fur will grow back 100% because their coat type is quite different.
