Default Behavior changes after coat is stripped

Anybody else got a dog that where you strip
the coat (pulling out the hairs a few at a time)
rather than clipping? Does your dog turn into
a recluse when newly stripped?

Many rough-coated terriers are supposed to be
groomed in this way.

Angel the Airedale's coat needs stripping
about twice a year. Breeder did it for me
this time.

Angel looks like she's going around in her
underwear...lots smaller and a little shivery.
Sleeping curled in doughnut with nose under
tail. But she is quite demonstrative about
not wanting to wear her coat when we go
out - temps are about 35 deg Fahr here now.

And she is avoiding much people contact,
not looking for her morning snuggler, choosing
to go and sack out in the master bedroom when we are
in the main room (lvr/ofc/kit) and vice versa.

She also didn't want to go out with the
dog walker today: demonstrated by heading for
the livingroom instead of out into the hall
as usual when he came to get her.

Appetite and elimination are stable, so I don't
think she's sick.
