People get the dogs shaved because either a) they think it cuts down on shedding b) they think the dog will be cooler in warm temps or c) they don't have the time/aren't able to brush the dog, often because they can't train the dog to be still or they just brush over the top of the dog and it gets matted underneath and needs to be shaved.
In case of A or B, they're just wrong. In the case of C....meh. I guess it's better than rehoming the dog, especially if they're spending the time they would be brushing exercising or doing other things with the dog.
