nonshedding
Hair stays put
Nonshedding describes animals, especially dogs, that don't lose much hair or fur: We got a nonshedding breed because of my allergies.
No dog is truly nonshedding—all mammals shed some hair—but certain breeds like poodles and bichon frises release far less than others, making them popular with allergy sufferers.
