[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not true. We have a 12yo Portuguese Water Dog and he genuinely does not shed--he has true hair. [/quote] 1. The hair on dogs is all the same. Some call it fur, some call it hair, but there is no physical difference. 2. Some dogs shed a lot, some hardly ever. 3. SHEDDING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ALLERGENS. 4. Because dander is responsible for allergens, not hair, and dander is sloughed off regardless of how much hair is being shed. example: Samoyeds are white long-haired dogs that are high-shedders but low-dander. 5. It's true that Portuguese Water dogs are known to be on the short list of dogs which rarely activate people's allergies, along with Bichon Frises, Poodles, and a few other breeds. The only thing you got right. [/quote] The shedded hair carries the proteins from saliva to you nose. That is what causes te aleergic response. Shedding is also messy. [/quote]
