You need to clean both to keep away infections and fleas. You need to clip their non-shedding coats every two months. You can get a special dog shampoo for non-shedding breeds that is available for different colors and a shampoo which is used against fleas. You do not have to use a conditioner if your dog’s coat is smooth. Use a soft brush for scrubbing the dog’s coat.

Non-shedding dog breeds come in all sorts of color, shape and size. If you really want a dog, then you have a big choice. You can definitely have a pet dog that will not irritate your nostrils. Choose one of the hundreds of non-shedding breeds available and you will have a loyal friend for life.
