What is 1 dog that doesn't shed?
Yes, MALTESE. They are also excellent family dogs. I had many puppies and 3 daughters, with not a single incident, nor one pet hair. I now have Standard Poodles, much bigger in size with same qualities and easier to train. Maltese did not want to potty outdoors, was the only negative I can recall.

Does Morkie dog breed shed?

What dog breeds are non shedding?
All dogs shed hair, even the "hairless" breeds. They must shed their coats to make room for new fur. Some dogs shed less, or have shorter or less hair, or they shed the same amount but their wiry or double coat holds the hair that is shed until you brush it out with regular grooming. That leaves less hair behind on people, clothing, and houses.Don't believe all that people say when they advertise a certain breed as being non shedding, is not true. That would be like your keeping the same exact hairs you were born with for life and never losing any, it is a physical impossibility, individual hairs do not last forever.Some dog breeds that fit one or more of the "low shedding" categories above are: Airedale Terrier, Border Terrier, Chinese Crested, Lakeland Terrier, Miniature Pinscher, Puli, Komondor, Welsh Terrier, Standard Poodle, Miniature Poodle, Miniature Schnauzer, Short Haired Dachshund, Shih Tzu, Yorkshire Terrier, Welsh Corgi, and Toy Poodle.If you are asking because you or someone else you know has allergies or asthma, then it's not the fur/hair, it's the dander from the skin of the dog that usually triggers the allergic response (and sometimes the proteins in saliva or urine cause the allergic responses). See related questions below about dander and allergies.More:Hair cells on all mammals grow to a particular length depending on where the cell is on the body, then the hair shaft falls out and a new hair grows.On long-haired dogs the hair grows longer before it is shed than it does on short-haired dogs. So the number of hairs shed will be more in short haired dogs over a given period of time, although the long hair piles up more and is more obvious.Dogs that are brushed and washed often, will have loose or shed hairs removed during this grooming, so less hair tends to be shed in unwanted places at other times when proper grooming is done. The hair on regularly clipped dogs gets cut to a short length before it is shed, so is less noticeable, as is the shed hair from a naturally short-haired dog.Other Information About Breeds Of Dogs That Have Less Problems with Shedding:All varieties of Poodles are low shedding. Poodles are being cross-bred with other breeds of dogs for this reason, and some results are the Cocka-Poo and Labradoodle. Labradoodles are also said to be a great pet for those who have allergies.Bichon Frise is a good breed for low shedding.Shih-Tzu's are also known not to shed as frequently. Their hair continually grows, so you need to get it cut periodically. It is also easier to care for if you have it in a pet cut rather than show grooming. Shorter pet cuts create less noticeable hair on things.A Wheaten Terrier is a good choice if shedding is an issue.Portugese Water Dogs are low shedding and also have the added advantage of being well tolerated by many people with allergies.The Afghan Hound doesn't shed more, but the very long hair is able to accumulate to look like more around the house. They are also a poor choice for those with dog allergies.A short list of some of the dog breeds that shed lightly, or have other characteristics of their coats that make them better for those who want to avoid shedding hair from their dogs, are:AffenpinscherAiredale TerrierBedlington TerrierBegamascoBichon FriseBologneseBorder TerrierBrussels GriffonChinese CrestedChinese Shar PeiCoton De TulearDandie Dinmont TerrieGiant SchnauzerHavaneseIrish Water SpanielKomondorLakeland TerrierMalteseMiniature PinscherMiniature SchnauzerPBGV (Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen)Polish Lowland SheepdogPoodlePortuguese Water DogPuliPumiShih TsuShort Haired DachshundSoft Coated Wheaten TerrierStandard SchnauzerToy PoodleWelsh CorgiWelsh TerrierWestiesWirehaired Pointing GriffonYorkshire Terrier
