My son's big American Bulldog is shorthaired but he sheds badly twice a year. Once at my sister's, he'd been playing a lot, rolling around on the floor, etc., and Danny got up to get implements to clean up the hair, saying he was shedding. I thought he was kidding until he brought me over to the floor where the sunlight kind of backlit the hair and you could see so much dog hair on the tile flooring! Took Danny a little while to clean it all up! And his dog is the picture of health, in topnotch condition, well-exercised, full vetted the moment he sneezes, regularly tested/treated for any little thing so he doesn't shed because he's sick - it's just what those dogs do. Imagine more than one dog blowing coat in the same area of a grocery store of pharmacy. And imagine of even some of them are long-haired! Ugh!
