Do Bolognese dogs shed?

Yes, Bolognese dogs shed, but very minimally. Bolognese dogs are known for their low-shedding coat, making them a popular choice for people with allergies. They have hair, not fur, which is similar to human hair in its texture and growth cycle. This hair grows continuously and falls out less frequently than fur, contributing to their minimal shedding.

Bolognese dogs have a single coat, which is long, fluffy, and somewhat curly. Unlike double-coated breeds that have a dense undercoat and a protective outer layer, Bolognese dogs have only one layer of hair. This single coat helps to reduce the amount of loose hair around the home.

Despite their low shedding, Bolognese dogs require regular grooming to keep their coat healthy and free of tangles and mats.
