I just read up on this (since I'm considering getting a Chihuahua from the shelter)...they are "moderate shedders". The one I saw at the shelter (short hair, brownish orange color) was shedding excessively - a clump per stroke pretty much - but its coat still looked full. I'm hoping that its due to the time of year, cheap food, or stress and that if I adopt it, the shedding will become a lot lighter. My nose got really stuffy/congested at the end of the visit, so maybe I was allergic. A different (playful, less afraid) Chihuahua (black short hair) at another shelter didnt shed 1 hair I think, during our 20 minute play room visit. ~Shevi Yes chi's shed, all chi's shed some. Chi's do shed more at certain times of the year, but overall it really isn't bad. I usually sweep my hardwood floors once a day and that keeps the shedded hair under control.
