now living in Baja

I have two dogs, Baxter and Rose, they are 4 & 5. While I was living in central Calif. I had my dogs groomed bi-monthly, professionally. I am now living in San Felipe, and they go to the beach daily & it will be getting hotter. How about cutting their hair short? They have always had long hair. Any suggestions, plus I heard that they are insulated from the heat with their long hair. Help .....anyone

I would trim them if it were me. If you take a look at this link it explains how the sheepdog coat works a little bit. It is a myth that they are protected from the heat. I know as I live in FL!!! :lol:

I live in the California Desert, I shave my dogs for the summer. My male prefers short hair and usually sports a short cut year round.
I don't know, but have some lobster for me!
