Actually, the long haired dogs are more comfortable in summer WITH their hair than without. The hair actually insulates from the heat. And if they do get shaved, they are suseptible to sunburn!
I'd love to cut all of Bella's hair off, but I'l just thin the really thick parts, trim some of the extra-long, and brush a lot.
And shaving does not make hair come in thicker. There are still the same number of hair follicles, which is where the hair comes from.
