Basically every dog will bite, bark, and shed because it's a dog's natural thing. If your think about adopting I would suggest two thing's. One go on petfinder.com or animal planet and check out the adoption tab or a short hair dog because they normally dont shed much and the long hair breeds can spell fatal and death sentence. If you really want a dog that doesn't bite bark or shed then get a cat because every dog will do that in some point in time. It's natural but short hair cat's can be a perfect match.
Yes, all dogs shed. How much the breed typically sheds, how long the hair is, how often they shed (some do seasonally) and whether they have an undercoat or not will make the hair more or less visible and more or less of a problem.
