Close shaving or removal near skin may cause irritation, redness or small cuts (some matting lies very close to skin).
Skin may be exposed, which might look patchy or uneven.
Matting can hide skin issues (sores, infections), fleas or ticks. These may be revealed during the process.
Dogs sometimes feel discomfort or sensitivity in shaved areas until hair grows back.
