Can you shave a Great Pyrenees dog?

No, you should not shave a Great Pyrenees. Their thick double coat serves several important functions, including insulation from both cold and hot weather, protection from sunburn, and regulation of body temperature. Shaving a Great Pyrenees can disrupt their natural coat insulation and might lead to discomfort, skin irritation, and other issues.

Additionally, shaving a double-coated breed like the Great Pyrenees does not necessarily reduce shedding. In fact, it can sometimes lead to increased shedding or changes in the texture and appearance of the coat as it grows back.
