Best Answer

no only cats

Wrong answer, my dog gets one every few months...she grooms herself constantly because she has dry skin which we have worked on since we got her...she is part chow and part lab. I have put her on an allergy free diet, but she still gets hot spots in the spring and fall which causes her to lap herself constantly. So, even though it is not as common, dogs do get hairballs...

If they eat an animal that is hairy! But no they don't.

I have had dogs all my life. I have never had one that spewed out a hairball. They brought everything else under the sun up, but never a hairball.

I believe a better way to put this question is do dogs have fur. But of course dogs have hair/fur they are mammals.

The only cats that never get hairballs are Sphynx cats (which are hairless.) Some cats get hairballs more often than others, especially if they are long-haired cats. Hairballs are a way of getting rid of ingested hair, so you can prevent hairballs by feeding cats something like Petromalt, which allows them to pass the hair rather than throwing it up.

Guinea Pigs, unlike cats and dogs, don't lick themselves. Therefore, Guinea Pigs don't have hairballs. Improvement: However, some guinea pigs are prone to "barbering" to eating fur off either themselves, other pigs, or their human companions. Excessive barbering can lead to hairballs which in turn can lead to anorexia and weight loss and must be treated.
