Do you trim the fur between your dog's pads?

[wolf_Q]

Jo's fur was really long..so I cut it 2 weeks ago..ish. And it's already growing out! I never even thought about it much till I went to Amy's...haha! Nebo is SO perfect..like nails, fur, teeth.... so inspiring.

LOL that's what being a groomer does to you... Yeah, I'm a bit obsessive about Nebo's feet, it drives me insane if he has lots of fur sticking between his toes. I shave around the pads and also even trim around the outside edges and on the back of the leg up to the other pad (I always forget what that's called).

I shave around the pads of Reggie and Sydney when I groom them too.

The fur on the undersides of husky paws helps them have better traction across ice.

I have heard that before, but I've more noticed dogs with lots of fur just get snow and ice stuck between in their paws...I don't see how that could help them. But I'm not a musher either. I've never let Nebo's grow out long enough to notice any difference.

p.s. photo attached of Nebo's feet lol I groomed him yesterday...I do it really short so it will take longer to grow out, it looks better when it's not quite this short.
