iluvlucy Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Lucy Lou has hair completely covering her belly. I have never seen this in a dog before. Does your dog have hair on his/her belly. If my camera wasn't broke I would take pictures to show you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OffTopic Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 I may not quite understand what you're asking, but I've never had a dog that didn't have hair on it's belly. Some have had longer hair than others, but they've all had hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbc1963 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 My dog has hair all over his belly, but I know what you mean. My sister's dogs (boxer-type coats) have much barer, pink bellies than my dog. You can see their skin down there. Incidentally, we got a fresh snow the other day, and my dog had tiny dreadlocks-like icicles hanging off his belly hair and his er... well, you know.

Janba Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 I don't notice it so much in the borders, but my dally grows a covering of hair on her entire belly in winter. I can't take a photo now as it is summer here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie_Girl Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Some dogs do have more hair than others on their belly's. However, females will lose what hair is there when they get prego and it will usually not grow back. I think amount has to do with breed and coat type. A smooth coated dog probly has less on the belly than a longer haired dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandra s. Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Here's a hairy belly for you: (that was in November, so it's her winter coat, but she always has long hair down there.) I always wonder about those completely nekkid pink BC bellies that show up on the boards sometimes. They look funny to me! I never checked where these dogs live. Maybe it is something to do with temperature (although I'm not sure if their coats can really adapt that much...somehow I doubt it, but I could be wrong). One thing's for sure, a hairless belly would be very awkward in our winters! Brrr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OffTopic Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Now, that's a hairy belly. I hadn't really thought about the fact that female dogs wouldn't have as much hair on their belly, especially after giving birth. Makes total sense. I've never had a female dog that had puppies*, so all my doggies have been fuzzy all over (and pretty fuzzy breeds, too)! *edited: I have, but I was a kid, so don't remember all the hairy details.

SnickerKitten Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 That looks like Stormy's belly!!!! I hadn't really thought about it before, but he does have an awful hairy belly. The aussie rescue I currently have has a pretty bare belly, though. Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyler Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Now that cute little belly just makes me want to give it a big kiss and a loud ZERP!!! What a little cutie she is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misty has hair on her belly, not like the one shown, that's for sure! lol She was spayed in November, so it's still coming in, but it is thin. I would download a pic too, but I'm on the laptop and all pics are on our main computer. I actually like that harry belly, it looks sooo soft!
