DO SPITZ SHED MUCH HAIR?
Yes. During the moulting process which occurs every season for undesexed bitches, but less regularly for desexed bitches or dogs, your spitz may appear to have ‘clumps’ of hair throughout the coat, just prior to the ‘blow’. This moult is usually only restricted to seasnal changes, unlike shorter haired breeds which moult continuously. When a spitz is moulting, it can appear you have an indoor snowstorm, unless you follow the dog around with the vacuum. The good news is that once your spitz has finished this coat drop, they will only leave ‘tumbleweeds’ floating in the corners of your rooms. These ‘tumbleweeds’ are easily swept up or vacuumed off the carpet, unlike shorter breed’ s hairs which ‘stab’ carpet and cushions and are very difficult to remove.
