Jazz barely sheds at all. Jewel is blowing her coat right now and is shedding like crazy!

 

Zeke sheds very little. He's a schnauzer. Anyone who said they don't shed at all is misguided, but it's minimal.

Molly has a short coat and no undercoat (thanks to her suspected weim dad.) Medium shedder.

Esther has an undercoat and sheds like a lab. In three colors. All year-round.

 

The paps shed a bit constantly. Enough that if you hold them you will have noticeable hair on you.

Hank sheds more than any dog I've had. It is half black and half white too so you cant win. He also doesn't have an undercoat and sheds constantly.

 

You don't want to know.

 

I'm getting an Aussie with an undercoat - I'm gonna be brushing for hours daily!

 

My Shelties shed a lot less than my short haired do.

 

Eko sheds so bad that I have to brush almost every day and I definitely have to sweep and vacuum daily if I don't want to see furballs in the corners. Xena doesn't shed so bad and her hair is like half an inch long, barely noticeable unless you wear black.

 

Luke sheds. A lot. His coat is short but he has a pretty thick undercoat.

Zoey, not much. She has barely any undercoat and the hair she does shed is real short hairs.

Not sure what Skye is going to do yet.

 

He doesn't shed much. I do find dust bunnies around the house, and I might find a long white hair on my clothes sometimes, but hairs don't fly off when I pet him, and I don't have hair all over my clothes. He has an undercoat but it's thin.

 

That's about how Katie and Tyson shed. Typically, I find more fur bunnies the longer it's been since they've been groomed. They are nothing like our long-haired cat where we did have fur covering all our clothes and flying off every time we pet her. She was a little like Pig Pen only with fur instead of dirt. She's been almost 5 years and I'm still finding her fur around the house.

 

So much, lol.


Except Maisy, she doesn't shed too badly.

 

Buckets. All of them. And, they shed year round.

 

Thud sheds like it's his job. I joke that he projectile sheds.

Kylie sheds almost none. Like, sheds about as much as a poodle - on her own. I have to manually remove dead undercoat from her/strip her like she's a freaking terrier.

Jack and Bug shed a lot a couple of times a year, but have no undercoat and super short fur so it's not bad.

Molly, I don't know yet. We'll see when she's full mature, but so far she's done more putting on coat than taking it off.

 

Sounds like Thud and Kuma are kindred spirits, lol.

 

All the time. So much. She'll do a full body shake and I can see the fur shooting off of her.

Little white sticks everywhere

 

Freyja blows coat for about two weeks. I know she does it at least once a year but she is only 15 months so I don't know if she will do it twice a year yet (we'll see in fall). My house is full of fluff when she sheds but then she is done. Lad is shedding out some fluff right now but I have no idea what it will be like when he is an adult. Blue does not really shed, she will lose a tiny bit of hair here and there but not much. Magic also sheds very little. I see some fur around her crate in my son's room but not around the house.

 

Loads more than any dog I have ever had; year round. Fortunately, between non-contrasting colored furnishings, an ever-ready vacuum and my 58-year old eyes, the dog hair isn't too, too harrying.

He sheds loads on a daily basis despite being brushed every morning, raked every few days and being a supposedly non-shedding breed (yes, I know there isn't such a thing, but I have owned cairns and belong to cairn specific forums and no one has a cairn that sheds anything like as much as he does!). I posted a thread asking for suggestions and will be trying him on salmon oil as soon as I can source it.

 

Weird! You must have gotten lucky with him

All the labs I've met shed like no ones business.

 

Well.. I have a shedder but it's really not that bad as long as it's not coat blowing season. I also have access to professional grooming equipment and a force dryer which greatly reduces the amount of hair that ends up in my house. It also helps that my Aussie doesn't have a lot of coat compared to most. So.. medium amounts of shedding. Not like the Labs I know..

 

WELL, this came from my 20 pound mix. She has a double coat, and it literally felt like she blew the coat this time around. She didn't blow her coat last year... this year she did. It was weird. And that's not all of it, either.

 

When I had my big lab, robins would sit in the trees and watch me brush him. Then they would line their nests.

My wife would wrap his fur in cheesecloth and put it in the garden to discourage rabbits. I'm not sure that made as much difference as having a dog around who would catch and kill rabbits. Come to think of it, he wouldn't kill them. He would maim them and bring them to me and my kids would beg me to take them to the vet to "save" them.

 

oh Lord, I had a similar experience once My neighbors Lab maimed a Rabbit who managed to get away to my side of the fence where my dog grabbed it and brought it to me as if I could save him. I told the dog to drop it and thankfully, it ran through the fence on the other side. I am sure it didn't end well for the Rabbit but I didn't fancy spending hundreds...thousands to save a wild rabbit. Yeah, I am that kind of idiot. I can't stand to see anything suffer

 

The boys shed a little year around. Enough that if they lay on you, you will have noticable fur on your clothing. And they blow their costs in spring /summer.

Mason does not have a ton of undercoat yet, so I can brush him for 10 mins a day and he is fine usually. Jasper has a TON of undercoat. I brush him for about 30 min daily. I joke that everyday i get a "Damon sized dog" out of Jasper. Lmao!! They also both get a bath and blow out every two weeks.

 

Gally being a corgi sheds a lot. It is especially heavy when he is blowing coat as it comes out in big tufts. I can fully brush him out one night and by morning he will be covered in tufts again. The rest of the year I would still classify him as a medium-high shedder. Don't wear black clothes to our house.

 

Keeper hardly sheds at all. As in, I almost never find clothes around my house or on my clothes. I brush often and will pull up undercoat in the brush, but he really has very little undercoat.

14 month old medium coat border collie. So not quite done growing his coat, I'll get back to you in a year or two.

 

Improper coat (short) PWD: sheds constantly. It's insane.
Long coat Chihuahua: Same. gets worse in spring and fall

Cat. Worse in spring/fall, otherwise constant.

Thank goodness the bichon and poodle have minimum shedding

 

Heh, Bennie sheds so little that I never notice that she sheds. My girlfriends hair sheds more than the dogs! Occasionally I'll notice a few hairs on our white sheets but other than that I often forget she sheds at all. Hair comes out when I brush her well but just doesn't stick to anything or fall out usually?

 

Too much. So much. I hate it. I'm constantly sweeping and vacuuming. And we always have multiple lint rollers on hand. Also, this might be completely coincidental and not even necessarily accurate, but I'm kind of convinced that my dog sheds more in Arizona than when we lived in New Jersey.

I'm pretty much at the point where I'm sure that after this set of dogs go, there won't be any more for a LONG time time. And in all honesty, the fur is absolutely a contributing factor to those feelings. I love my dogs so much and I wouldn't trade them for the world, but I am truly over the never ending trails of mess that they leave behind.

Isn't it more dry there? In the winter when we use the heat and Bennie gets dry skin from the drier air, she sheds more. Again, she never sheds that much, but it's a bit more than the rest of the year.

 

Jubel doesn't shed that much. He has very little undercoat, has "big" sheds about twice a year. I'll spend a week or two brushing him with a zoom groom every few days and we are good until the next "big" shed. He does constantly shed through out the year but it's only relatively bad twice a year.

Current foster Daphne sheds like crazy. She has a very dense short coat so little short yellow hairs EVERYWHERE!!!!111!!11!!11! It was ridiculous when I first brought her home, two baths and a lot of zoom groom time and it became less horrible but still hair everywhere. I haven't brushed or bathed her in about a month...it's getting bad again.
