Because most Siberian Huskies were raised in the cold weather which is why their coats are very thick. Their fur is very straight and smooth, and just like Pomeranians, they have a double coat. Because the pomskies have double coats its recommended not to shave their coat or cut their undercoat. When you take your Pomsky to the groomer you should ask the groomer to only do a sanitary trim. An experienced groomer should know what this is. If this fur is shaved it can ruin their coat permanently. A pomskies double coat protects them from the sun as it does the cold weather.
