for science homework, lol
Is there a scientific name for dog hair? If there is, what is it?
I'm pretty sure that most just refer to dog hair as "dog hair," but you might find it interesting that animal hair is divided into three categories:
* Guard hairs that form the outer coat of an animal and provide protection
* Fur or wool hairs that form the inner coat of an animal and provide insulation
* Tactile hairs (whiskers) that are found on the head of animals and provide sensory functions
