I adopted my Siberian Husky, Ginny, when she was about 2 years old. Shortly after that, I had her spayed. Now, I know under normal circumstances huskies shouldn’t be shaved, but this was for an operation. It’s been almost a year, and the fur where she was shaved, still hasn’t all come back. Is there a way to promote more fur growth, or will she always be missing a bit of fur?

thats why you shoundt hav spayed ur *****, it may never grwo back!
eventually it will grow in, it just takes time
it will grow back, except directly where the scar may be.
give it time. some huskies don’t even come into their natural, two layered coat, until their a couple years old.
and yours has gotten shaved.
it will grow back. My parents have a Belgian Tervuren (really furry)- and they shave him almost every year because it gets really hot. Maybe it just looks like it’s not growing because as it grows, all the other fur grows as well.
I know cats are different but it has been mos since we got her spayed her hair still hasn’t grown in. that’s a lot of hair to grow back all at once. I’m sure it will grow back eventually. You said that it has grown back some maybe you just have to give to top coat more time to come back.
Sorry I’m not more helpful.
There are many herbs, vitamins for hair growth in dogs. They either nourish the hair directly or support other functions that ultimately help hair grow. but keep in mind that you should never give your dog any supplement without first consulting with your vet about safety and proper dosage.
Also there are topical ointments you can get to stimulate the hair folicules and promote new growth. MTG and Nu-Stock are just 2 of the few you can find on JeffersPet.com to help promote hair growth. The down side to those 2 is they dont smell so good but they both work I have used both in the past on horses and dogs
Her hair will always be a little bit finer in that area but that is normal on most animals. Huskies have an undercoat as well so it will take awhile before she regains her top coat in her groin area.
I suggest brushing the area and massaging it to help with the circulation and blood flow. I don’t know if this will make it grow faster, but you can’t lose and I know she will love it anyway!
If the hair hasn’t grown back in nearly a year, that isn’t normal. Have you had her thyroid tested? A common symptom of Hypothyroidism is failure of coat to regrow. Hypothyroidism is also becoming more common in the breed.
Her coat should have re-grown by now. I’d get her checked out. If she has a health problem, no over-the-counter supplement will fix this.
