    Thanks for this helpful information. I wonder if in the end it would even make a big difference to my daughter, who's allergic--or if it's more about the dander. Either way, nice not to have dog hair all over onesself after a visit to doggie-lovers!

    Nice lens. Good information to have before you get the dog. Lots of dogs end up in shelters because owners didn't understand how much was involved in being a dog owner. Please check out my new lens on adopting older dogs. They are my special passion but I love all animals. Thanks for the good info!

    It's awesome that several terriers are on this list! I've been considering getting another dog, and I want a terrier after reading the book "The Nose Knows" by Holly Lewitas (http://spunkymysterybooks.com). The main character is a terrier mix, and it was so full of personality that I want one, too. Good to know that they don't shed, because I don't want to constantly be covered in fur!

    Portuguese water dogs are considered hypo-allergenic. We raised a wonderful PWD, along with our children, through the 1980s and '90s. He required regular grooming, but he was perfect for our allergic household. He was a challenge to train but a joy to have. We loved him.
    We had a standard poodle until he died of old age last year; also great for allergic homes, and so lovable and easy to train.
    Thank you for the lovely lens.

  • Pastiche Feb 26, 2012 @ 9:53 am | delete
    As Rose mentioned. it's generally the dander and not the hair that trigger my allergies. The hair shedding or matting is a cleaning and pet care task that comes with having a lovely doggie family member. I have the dander allergy issue but I've found that I can get myself desensitized if I spend time with the same pet on a regular basis. I'd love a smallish to mid-sized mixed breed lab or golden.

    Great resource for people looking for non-shedding dogs. We have a cairn terrier for just that reason. I could have used your advice earlier for how to prevent matted hair. Blessed.
  • Rose Feb 19, 2012 @ 9:24 am | delete
    It is usually the DANDER that people are allergic to, not the hair itself. So really, if you are allergic to animals then you probably should not get one. There is no such thing as a Hypoallergenic dog nor a NON-shedding dog as was stated above.
    Also, please note that the GoldenDoodle is NOT A BREED !! it is a Mixed bred dog, aka mutt
  • kimark421 Feb 19, 2012 @ 10:21 am | delete
    Very true on the dander. My main concern on this lens is Non-Shedding dogs, and I believe I address the fact that there is no such thing...they either shed out, or in. As far as Goldendoodles and other designer dogs not being a "breed", I address this in my designer dog lenses. They are mutts in the eyes of AKC, but there are hundreds of thousands of people who consider them "breeds", and they are willing to spend purebred dog money to get one. Personally, I think those looking for a dog should adopt.

    Thank you for your comments!

    Non-shedding dog breeds, also called hypoallergenic dogs, are great for people who have allergies. Dog fur, or animal dander, would be the triggering factor of all those sneezes and stuffy noses. That is the reason why some people do not get dogs at all.

    Not sure that the Border Terrier could be classed as non-shedding as my parents dog always leave hairs all over the place! I have a Cairn and she hardly looses any hair and neither does my Whippet.

    I see you have the little Italian Greyhounds on your list of dogs that don't shed very much, but you forgot to put Greyhounds on the list too! Lots of people with allergies find that Greyhounds' fur doesn't bother them, and as short-haired smooth-coated breed they need very little grooming, just a rub-down with a hound mitt or a soft cloth...
    On the other end, that FURminator is the world's greatest invention for long-haired, thick-coated dogs like my Golden Retriever who runs into every burdock and thistle she can find!

These dogs make perfect pets because they are great with children and small dogs as well as retaining their hunting instinct - so they aren't just an ornament!

    Our vet has a Goldendoodle, such a wonderful dog. We were just talking last night about the fact that they don't shed. If Daisy ever needs a brother or sister, we would definitely consider a Goldendoodle.

    I currently have a labradoodle (lab X poodle), he sheds very little,but I have to keep his undercoat especially well groomed otherwise tangles & knots appear . Many years ago I bred Afghans, despite having such long coats they too shed very little outwardly.
    Great lens. +1 from me.

    Nice lens. I breed Yorkshire Terriers and i know for fact that yorkies do shed. Some of your better blood lines seem not to as much or no more then us. But my first yorkie he is what i call a yorkie that i bought from a back yard breeder and they are like the bottom of the line yorkies. My Sketter sheds so bad that i can take a pet roller anywhaer on the floor or carpet and one sweap across the carpet the roller is so full you can't see the white under the hair. It is very very bad.

    I enjoyed the clip about brushing the dog’s teeth. I just am just starting to brush my dog’s teeth. But he is a clever little dog. He likes the toothpaste so he stays still more or less until he manages to get the toothpaste off the brush. Then takes off with great speed and refuses to come anywhere close to me again until I put the toothbrush away.

    The sweetest dog I ever had was a German Shepherd named Amy, but she did have what we referred to as "an unfortunate shedding problem". For 20 years she and my husband shed their hair. Hers grew back. His, unfortunately, did not. Thanks for the list of non-shedders. I'll keep it to reference before getting the next sweet pup.

    I have a dachsund/pomeranian mix. He doesn't shed much. I think that cats shed worse than dogs. I have a cat too. Even tho' she is short hair, her hair is everywhere and very fine so it sticks to your clothes and even eyelashes. Oh well. Yes the dog and cat get along pretty well. Both are indoors too.

    I think it is important that people choose dogs that work with their lifestyles. It is too important that you do not fail at this choice - there are too many dogs in rescue organizations because of this. Also, if you decide to buy a purebred dog, either check out a rescue society for the breed or visit the breeder yourself - that will help you from avoiding puppy mills.

  • kimark421 Feb 1, 2011 @ 6:53 am | delete
    Good point, and added...but be sure to have a brush handy. Bouviers shed into their undercoat and not brushing properly and regularly will result in a matted dog. Thanks for your comment!

    I think one of the worst shedders is the Chesepeak Bay Retriever! My dad loved those dogs and we had one on our ranch all the time when I was a kid. Dad is an avid hunter, especially of waterfowl like Canada goose and ducks. So, he loved the almost waterproof and cold resistant hair of the Chessy. Unfortunately, with great hair comes great shedding! Those dogs shed year round, especially if they spend any time indoors. But the worst is in the spring! At that time, you can't pet them without getting handfuls of hair! Even though they shed, you've still got to brush them to keep that wonderfully insulating undercoat of fine wooly hair from matting. The overcoat is wavy, long and oily. At times, its almost like petting sheep. You get a lanolin like substance all over your hands. They are usually the color of dead grass (the ones dad got anyway, there are also "Chocolate" ones that are darker) and have pink noses and green eyes. Very striking looking and very big dogs. I loved their protectiveness and fierce loyalty but hated their hair! When they got older, dad would keep them in the house in the winter, getting dog hair in everything.

    Alas, my Lab hated the Furminator--I was really looking forward to getting to vacuum less! But, for a dog who doesn't mind it, I'd imagine they're great for heavy shedders.

  • AkitaJitsu Nov 14, 2010 @ 11:59 pm | delete
    Great list of non-shedding breeds. Personally, I'd add Akitas to the list. They tend not to shed except for two or three times a year when they blow their coat. Of course, when they blow their coat, you end up with enough fur everywhere to make 5 or 6 more dogs!!
  • kimark421 Nov 15, 2010 @ 8:08 am | delete
    We have groomed Akitas when they are blowing their coat, and after drying one it takes us two days to clean the hair out of our shop!! Okay, I'm exaggerating a little bit there...

    Wow -- this was really helpful! I want to get a dog at some point and I was thinking about a dachshund because I love that breed.

    I have a toy Poodle. I keep her hair cut short and I only have to brush her about once every week, or even less than that. She gets groomed every 8 weeks. So, dogs won't necessarily get matted without a lot of brushing if their hair is kept fairly short. That's easier all around.

    Don't know the age of your kids, but if they are old enough to be gentle with a dog, get an Italian greyhound. They don't shed and they don't smell. They are the perfect house dog as long as you have a yard they can run in. They need to run, but watching them is fun in itsel.

    Great lens, I haven't had a dog for a long time but loved this lens. By the way thanks for visiting my "Whale and Dolphin Slaughter” lens. I really appreciate that. 5*

    I like the idea of a non-shedding dog. Our German Shepherd sheds worse than any dog we have had.

    I would have to add Pomeranian to the list of dogs that shed a lot. Great information, and the furminator works wonderfully!

    Great idea for a lens. I'm all for non-shedding dogs. I love my non-shedding, hypoallergenic Cairn!
