Shaved Collie

Question
We just recently took my rough collie to a dog grooming place and they said that they would have to shave him because his fur was bad, so they did and now he has no hair, will his hair grow back?

Answer
Yes, as long as he is on a proper diet his hair should grow back fine.  I suggest combing him thoroughly daily so he doesn't get knots again.  Some time matting can cause bald patches because the knotted up hair pulls at the skin.  He should be fine though.
