What's a small dog that dosen't have long hair?

We are looking for a cute small dog who is a good watchdog, that dosen't have long hair, or one that shed's alot.

We are looking for a dog in the class of toy, one of the smallest ones that isn't a chiwawa...

Fair price range, and not looking to buy one, just looking for breeds.

It's for my Aunt who is thinking of getting a dog.

If you could give me any more information on a breed of dog that matchs what I'm looking for that would realy help, thanks!

I like yorkies, they have hair (like us) and can be cut into some great styles (I personally have all mine in show coats as I'm a professional confirmation exhibitor).

Have your aunt consider adopting a needy dog from the shelter or a rescue group. Petfinder.com is another really good place to look for a dog once you have decided upon a breed whose characteristics you find compatible with her lifestyle.

Good luck!

miniature dachshunds (the shorthair, of course) are great companion and watchdogs.

What's a small dog that dosen't have long hair?

The problem with what you are looking for is that it doesn't exist. You can either get a dog that has long hair and doesn't shed or one with short hair and does shed.

I think that she might be better with a long haired dog that she can get groomed and trimmed on the regular basis. Breeds like Shih Tzus and Lhasa Apsos are small and very nice.

What's a small dog that dosen't have long hair?

Too bad you are not interested in Chihuahuas. They are the best dogs in the world. I have owned several breeds large and small and nothing beats a chihuahua. As for shedding, short haired dogs usually shed more than the long haireds. Min pins are a good small dog. Also Rat Terrier, Italian Greyhound.

What's a small dog that dosen't have long hair?

A rat terrier. Ratties come in all sizes, they have very short hair, very smart, and can bark up a storm if needed.

I almost got a rattie, but found a perfect mixed breed pup who is part terrier, lab, beagle and Aussie Cattle Dog. He's a bit bigger than what I thought I wanted, but he's a perfect, even tempered and quite smart little fellow.

I researched the rattie, and have met quite a few, and would get one if I had room for two dogs and three cats.

On the issue of shedding.....Shedding can be the result of bad diet, not breed. My little guy has very short hair and doesn't sheed. I feed him the ultra premium dog food and its the diet that keeps him from shedding.

I don't know how old your aunt is. I have a short legged Jack Russell Terrier. He is so cute. They are a hand ful though. If she can handle a fast very active dog that needs a lot of attention and can be kept in the house and watched when you let it go outside, a Jack Russell might be a good idea. Keep in mind, these dogs are real smart, highly active and escape artist. But boy are they cute!!!! My dog weighs 16 lbs.

IT isn't in the toy group but you might want to try a Jack Russell Terrier or Parson Russell Terrier they are the same thing I know but some people know it as one not the other. Other wise you could try: Italian Greyhound, Miniature Pincher, Manchester Terrier, Toy Fox Terrier, Pug, or Chinese Crested.

Rat Terrier, Miniature Pinscher, Italian Greyhound, Chinese Crested, to name some, OR you could go to a shelter and find a nice mixed breed dog that fits those requirements. It might take some searching but if you aren't in a rush you can probably find a great dog.
