Long or short haired dogs

As you can see I have shelties. They do have alot of hair coat, but they really only shed out twice a year. So a good brushing seems to keep them in good shape.
So then there are those short hair breeds, they shed and shed all year long. I have a friend that has Labs. She has dog hair and more dog hair.
I should mention those breeds that need to be clipped, such as poodles. They look good after a trim, but look out when they start to grow out.
Something to think about the next time your looking for a dog.
