Torin is a show type with a very thick black coat and he sheds very little hair. :D

Trev (solid gold) never seemed to loose hair but I do find a few of Dave's white from his blue roan coat around. Having said that.... I also find colourless fluff balls floating around the house regularly, did when I had Trev too so they've got to come from somewhere :lol: I think Normy does shed but not horribly so and Weimaraner hairs are a sort of transparent grey anyway so very hard to spot  :D

Ruby, my black and tan , does not seem to moult, but Ted who is an orange roan moults sooooo much, its hard to believe he has any fur left  ph34r ! We are constantly covered in his fur and always hoovering and sweeping it up.
Love Bernie, Ruby and Ted x

We have Molly and Poppy, Molly who is full show type, doesn't seem to moult very much although it's deceptive, I have wooden floors but whenever I move the settee there always seems to be another black dog under there  :005: Poppy who is show/worker on the other hand is losing quite a bit of hair she's white so needless to say I try to avoid black clothes  ;) but we love em , hairs n all  :luv: :D

Maggie loses her white hair loads more than her black... My carpet is quite light so doesn't show much, but there a little collections of it round the edges of the laminate :)

One reason a dog can be such a comfort when you're feeling blue is that he doesn't try to find out why.  ~Author Unknown

Mmmmmm its interesting that there seems to be a pattern developing with colours and shedding ? I tink I imagined that as she has a very heavy coat that she would shed all over the place but its just not the case, thanks for all your replies ;)

Absolutely nothing comes out of mine when shes stroked and she never leaves hair on my clothes - maybe thats because shes clipped or shes now an adult, however when she was blowing her puppy coat, it was absolutely everywhere - it even got into the freezer  :huh:

my three blue roans dont shed hair or very little after a bath , i once fostered a red cocker and OMG did he drop hair everywhere, ive always wanted a orange roan but thought that prob they would be bad for dropping the white hair, i agree with sarah1985 and mooching, i have a white cat and my friend and sister have jack russels and their hair is everywhere, it comes out in handfulls

Ruby is a blue roan,(unclipped) and she sheds LOADS  >:(

If she sits on your lap she leaves hair behind,her hair is all over the lace and this is with regular brushing  ::)

I think she might get clipped soon.........

Yes like crazy  >:(


It drives me mad! He only has to be on my bed for ten seconds and it's absolutely covered in hairs. I find them everywhere despite that fact i hoover every single day, some days even twice.

Rox and Rio hardly moult at all, but this maybe as they're very over shadowed by Penny (Lab X who moults for England! I really would've been better with a black carpet!!). Mika (Spitz) moults a little, but then has two major moults twice a year where it comes out like chunks of candyfloss!  :005: ph34r

yes, he moults horrendously most of the year - and he's an entire liver working cocker, and yes he gets brushed regularly and combed with steel comb/rubber band combo (not that you would know it by the state of him  ph34r )
