Some Facts About Hair or Fur
Hair and fur are practical terms to refer to different genetic programs for different types of dog coats. On the cellular level, all canine coats, whether hair or fur, are made of keratin. Practically, however, there’s a huge difference.
The difference lies in how the coat grows. Some coats are genetically programmed to grow to a predetermined length (or PDL). This means they will grow to a certain length, at which point they will stop. Other coats grow to an undetermined length (or UDL), meaning they will keep growing until they are cut or until they break. Canines with fur feature coats that reach a predetermined length before halting their growth. Conversely, dogs with hair boast coats that continue growing for extended periods, sometimes spanning years. Additionally, dogs may possess another type of coat, known by various terms such as undercoat, wool, or secondary hairs. If a dog has both an undercoat and an outercoat (also called guard or primary hairs), they are said to be double-coated.
