The most non-shedding dogs

Shedding dogs are a myth. This is news, right? There are simply no dogs in the world that absolutely do not shed, because the renewal of the coat is a completely natural and normal process. Even hairless dogs have a few hairs on the muzzle or light down covering the body – and all these hairs fall out from time to time. But do not rush to get upset!

Wool falls out from time to time in any dog, but in different quantities. In some breeds, hair falls out so rarely that it is almost imperceptible. Such dogs are called “non-shedding”. What are these breeds?

Conventionally, they can be divided into four groups:

• The first includes hairless breeds such as the Chinese Crested, the American Hairless Terrier, and the Mexican Hairless Dog. These pets have too little hair, and you most likely will not notice their shedding.
• The second group is wire-haired dogs, such as schnauzers, Jack Russell Terriers, Affenpinschers, wire-haired dachshunds, etc. These dogs have a soft undercoat and a hard outer coat that practically does not shed. How then does molting occur? It is replaced by the plucking procedure (trimming), which can be done at home on your own or with a professional groomer. 
• The third group includes “curly” dogs. Beautiful curls practically do not crumble, but care for them should still be thorough. The dog needs to be combed regularly so that the coat does not lose its appearance and does not stray into tangles.
• The fourth group are long-haired dogs with a small amount of undercoat (for example, Yorkies). The cycle of active hair growth is very long: about 7,5 months, so their shedding will also go unnoticed.
