No they don't, i own one. Their fur does grow long though, so it is best to periodically get it cut to a pet cut as it is easier to care for. They smell very little and don't need to be bathed to often, as this dries out their skin and removes natural oils

What should I get a Shih Tzu or a Golden Retriever and why?

This depends on your personality. If your very active and like to go running or jogging, a golden retriever, shihtzus get tired and have to be carried( I know from expirience.) They're both very loving and loyal. Shihtzus will lay on your lap and sleep FOREVER ;) also they dont shed, but you do need to clean their eyes. GR shed ALOT .
