Is it okay for your dog’s whiskers to be cut off? A dog’s whiskers can aid in the dog’s vision, and they are often referred to as touch hairs. Whiskers can sense the slightest movement of air, as well as subtle changes in wind direction and speed. This makes the dog aware of the presence of prey or other nearby objects. Do not cut your dog’s whiskers out of curiosity, it is very bad for your dog and your dog may develop a poor balance that can affect your dog’s ability to sense its surroundings. If your dog’s whiskers accidentally break off, don’t worry too much, they will grow back.
