How much do Japanese Chins shed?
Japanese Chins are moderate shedders. To manage shedding and keep their coat in good condition, routine brushing — two to three times a week to remove loose hairs and prevent matting — is recommended. A pin brush works well for their silky, long coat, helping to detangle and remove loose hairs, while a metal comb can be useful for removing tangles and ensuring the coat is smooth. A slicker brush can help manage shedding by effectively removing loose hair from the undercoat. During periods of heavier shedding, more frequent brushing may be needed to keep up with the increased hair loss. Regular baths every four to six weeks can also help reduce shedding by keeping the coat clean and free of loose hair.
