Do Black Pugs Shed??

[SairaLV]

You were reading my mind Ellen. Yup.. Murphy sheds on my black pants and Duke sheds on my white top! And my black cat and orange tiger cat fill in the rest. It's a symphony of pet hair!

(I buy lint brushes in bulk!)

Me too! With 2 black pugs, 1 fawn, 1 black&white kitty, and 1 gray kitty, I really can't wear ANYTHING without it being covered in fur. I have noticed that the black fur seems to "fly" through the air and land on my table and/or in my food more!

OMG! Me, too! (Minus the kitties!)

I always thought the black hairs in my food were either falling off of me into my food, or from SugarRay table surfing the kitchen table! I never thought about the hair actually flying!

Our vacuum hair wads are a lovely salt and pepper look with Penny's light fawn and Molly & SR's black hair!

Oh! And we got new vinyl flooring in the kitchen when we had all fawn Pugs, so it's a nice light beige color. It always looks filthy now because of all the black hair!

I think Ruby sheds more then Keiki sometimes. Especially when I give them baths. Ruby has alot more hair in the tub then Keiki.

Rhoda (single-coated black) sheds much less than Marlee (single-coated fawn). She's also much, much softer. I can tell who's who in bed in the dark when I reach out and touch -- fine, soft hair is Rhoda; coarser hair is Marlee.

But even single-coated pugs shed. A lot. I can't remember the last time I didn't pick pug hair off myself in a meeting.

Sammy (black brindle mix) doesn't shed as much as Jackson (fawn) on a day-to-day basis, but he had a seasonal moult this summer that was insane. Jackson doesn't moult seasonally, but is more of a regular shedder. They both have a very soft double coat, but Sammy's is more dense and plush than Jackson's. They also both shed a lot more with stress, so vet visits are an adventure, but Sam also gets stressed out by change more than Jackson does.
