∙ 10y agoDogs do not normally have hair on their tongues; this would be a congenital abnormality that could be surgically corrected by a veterinarian in most cases.
Dogs do have rough papillae which are approximately hair-shaped on their tongues; these provide surface area for taste and for traction against their food so they can get food into their mouths and manipulate it in their mouths.
