Do Shiatsu Dog Shed A Lot?

Shih-tzus do not shed. Just like people, they have hair. When we comb our hair some hair comes out in the comb; however, they do not shed. They are highly recommended for people with allergies, and are also good with children. I was a breeder for 20 years of this particular breed. They were bred for companionship. They originated in China.

I can back Thmpsn on this as I've had a Shih tzu and he did not shed.  Only a little hair in the brush but Ziggy had long hair and I brushed him every day to keep it nice.  No dog hair to vacuum or sweep up!

Yes. This is the time of year when most of them are groomed with shorter hair due to the heat.

I don´t know but you should ask a local vet about your concerns

Not a lot.
