I should have been more specific. A LOT of short coated breeds dont shed much COMPARED to some other breeds. It depends on your description of "low shedding" is. To me, a lot of shorter coated breeds are low shedding compared to breeds with dense undercoats. I have had a chow and a min pin before... the min pin is low shedding compared to the chow. Thats how I see it.
It has to do with a dogs undercoat.
"low shedding" is about opinions, not facts.

low shedding is not about opinions, it is about the specific dog. you can tell me all day long your opinion of pits is that they dont shed b/c i have one that doesnt, therefore shorter haired breeds must not shed very much, and you would be very wrong, but very lucky to have a lowshedder when that isnt the norm for the breed.
truth for original poster. im not sure why you want a dog that doesnt shed. but i will say that if you have a problem with the hair, then really consider whether you want a dog, b/c dogs are hairy. like i already said, if you get a "non-shedding"dog you will probably be paying more for grooming (depending on the breed)
