Does dog hair grow at the same rate as human hair (about half an inch a month)?

Answer #1

I think a quarter inch a month

Answer #2

It depends on the type of dog. Remember, just like arm hair doesnt grown that much a month, depending on the dog, the hair may grow to a certain point and then stop growing… it also tends to grow in cycles.

Answer #3

I was just wondering because when we got my dog, half of her body had been shaven and it’s not grown back fully yet. I just wanted to know if it grows about the same rate as human hair on their head or if it grows slower or faster.
