Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Hi! I’m concerned about my huskys skin. We found out he had a heart murmur a few weeks back and today he had a echo done to getter look at it bexause here soon he will be going in to get neutered and we want to make sure we know how to best treat him while being under anesthesia. While getting the echo done today the tech shaved two spots on each side of his chest. I am for one not a believer is shaving a husky bexause I believer it effects their skin and coat. I’ve attached a picture and would just like some opinions on what to due. It’s very red but he is not bothered by it, I haven’t seen him even lick it. The scratches where there at the vet so I’m assuming it’s from the clippers. thank you!

Just from first blush, I think you're right - it looks like the tech got a little overly aggressive with the clippers and nipped a bit of skin.

Personal comment - that's a piss poor job of "shaving" for much of anything!

ETA: Typically, totally "shaving" for summer heat is a bad thing, their coats either take forever to grow in right or seem to never grow back right. The small amount they shave for surgery, spaying for example, normally looks odd for a while but eventually grows back and looks normal ... says the guy with a female Husky who's got more hair on her belly than her back, I think!

Rub some coconut oil on it to help with the irritation. It'll take a bit but will eventually fill back in.
