Do Chihuahuas (teacup Or Short Hair) Shed Much?
The Chihuahua is a medium shredder and the short haired variety will shed all year round, whereas the long haired variety will shed on a seasonal basis. The long haired Chihuahua needs to be brushed regularly to keep his soft coat in good condition, and you may need to step up the grooming with the double coated variety, as shedding may be heavier. With the short haired variety occasional brushing and wipe down with a damp cloth will help to keep his coat looking good.
