Dog breeds that (almost) don't shed
Every dog with hair sheds; some leave it on the couch and others keep it in the curl until you brush it out. These 24 breeds score 1 or 2 in shedding.

“Hypoallergenic” doesn't exist as a guarantee: if there are allergies at home, that's a conversation with the allergist, not with a list.
