Top 14 Dog Breeds That Don't Shed or Smell
In this video, we’ll talk about the top 14 dog breeds that don’t shed and have no doggy odor. Find out which dog breed is right for you right here.
The Poodle
Poodles are hypoallergenic and non-shedding. They also score low in the odor department.
Poodles come in three sizes – standard, miniature, and toy.
Poodles of all sizes need to be brushed daily, and keeping the coat neat and attractive involves frequent trips to the groomer. If not cared for properly, a Poodle’s fur can become matted and poorly conditioned.
The Miniature Schnauzer
These dogs shed very little, but are high-maintenance in terms of grooming. Their double coat needs to be clipped every five to eight weeks. The best part is that these dogs release very few unpleasant smells.
Miniature Schnauzers are small in size and require regular daily exercise to maintain their mental and physical health.
The Yorkshire Terrier
The Yorkshire Terrier is a compact, toy-size terrier of no more than seven pounds.
Yorkies are hypoallergenic. Their most notable feature is their coat, which is long, silky and straight.
As you brush it out, the hairs will transfer to the brush, much like human hair.
As a perfect lap dog, Yorkshire Terriers rarely emit any bad smell from their body. These dogs are affectionate, but they also want lots of attention.
The Boston Terrier
Apart from having almost no odor, the Boston Terrier sheds minimally during the year. They are a hypoallergenic breed. If you keep your grooming schedule as you should, you will find little to no hair in your home.
The Maltese
The Maltese is known for its beautiful silky and white coat that flows down to the floor. It’s a very small dog, usually weighting between 3 to 7 pounds. This makes it adaptable to apartments or small homes without garden.The Maltese sheds very little even with all that fluffiness. Of course, you have to brush the coat daily to keep the few hairs that fall at bay, and avoid annoying tangles. This dog also doesn’t have bad smells.
The Labradoodle
This crossbreed dog draws the incredible genes of both the Poodle and the Labrador retriever. The Labradoodle is a non-to-low shedder. If you are into crossbreeds and want one that ticks both boxes, this dog breed fits the description.
The Basenji
This small to medium-sized dog is without doubt unique and has some characteristics that totally distinguish it from other breeds.
Basenjis have a low odor and shed minimally. This charming, short-coat dog is a good friend to have if you don’t want the hassle of cleaning after them. Besides shedding very little, you’ll have very little grooming to do as Basenjis are fastidious and will groom themselves like cats.
The Shih Tzu
The small but lovable Shih Tzu is known for having long hair, a sweet nature, and beautiful dark eyes.
A Shih Tzu is different from most dog breeds as they have hair instead of fur.
A simple, daily grooming routine is enough to keep a Shih Tzu’s hair under control. You’ll rarely find the hair all over the place.
This toy breed doesn’t release any unpleasant smell, making them great for apartment living.
The Bichon Frise
The Bichon Frise is a small dog that resembles a miniature Poodle. It has a white, curly coat. This breed is considered to be relatively hypoallergenic, as it sheds very little and the shed hair gets caught up in the undercoat instead of falling to the floor. If this dead hair isn’t removed by combing or brushing, it can form tangles and mats. It can even lead to skin problems if left unattended. Grooming is a must for this breed to keep their coat in best condition. The Bichon is a naturally friendly, playful breed, and a perfect dog for first-time owners.
The Dachshund
Compared to other dog breeds, Dachshunds are low to moderate shedders. They don’t tend to leave massive amounts of hair on your floor or the sofa. And, if you brush them regularly, you shouldn’t find much dog hair around your house, as brushing them will remove all of the loose hair before it has a chance to drop around your home.
The only downside to owning this breed is that it is a passionate digger.
The Havanese
This breed doesn’t shed much, and smells good for the most part. The only challenge is keeping their coat looking great. It needs plenty of grooming to keep it from being matted and unsightly.
The West Highland White Terrier
The West Highland White Terrier, commonly known as the Westie, is a breed of dog from Scotland. It has a white double coat which fills out the dog’s face.
Though Westies don’t shed much, they still require frequent brushing. Brushing your Westie will help remove dead fur and keep his coat clean and mat-free.
The Portuguese Water Dog
Portuguese water dogs have a single-layered coat that does not shed. Most of the hair they do release gets caught up in their waves or curls. Portuguese water dogs are well-known as a breed that’s great for people with allergies to hair or dander.
You put schanzuers at level 3 shedding, which is utterly misleading. They literally don’t shed at all.
Why isn’t Greyhound in this list??
Thanks for the advice I’ll use it really helpful this video solved my problems
9:10 used to have one it was an amazing dog and it was unique with its white and black fur man this gives back memories
How can you not include the Italian Greyhound? In fact, I’d put them at the top of the list.They do NOT smell and their fur, which is extremely short, only sheds minimally. I bathe my IG twice a year and she always smells great. Never any wet-dog smell! They don’t need traditional grooming. Super sweet dogs, and sensitive. Wonderful companions.
The Strangest Things Found Inside animals never seen before OMG ! https://youtu.be/A2ehqK31BdY
Lhasa apso??
ok minimal shed… is NOT no shed people
Cairn terriers are awesome dogs as well!!!
As an owner of the Hanvenese they shed ALOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT and my dog does smell good it does need a lot of grooming tho
Is there a difference between the miniature snauzers and their giant brothers regarding their smell? 🤔 I thought they were technically the same breed in a different size?!
That doesn’t make sense. All mammals shed. Fur/skin.

recently heard: The past is history and the future is a mystery.Today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the "present".
A cavapoo is great ☺️
Well I have a white shepard/Brown labrador-mix and oh yes there is hair everywhere and i meen e v e r y e w h e r e, in food, clothes, makeup, beds and so on and so on😂and i, love him like crazy, and most dogs smell, so what🤷♀️
Those were not all poodles in the pictures.
I really like the dogs list I didn’t knew a lot
Had many Shiz Tzus they do not shed.
Labradoodles are just poodle mixes. Just get a poodle, this video also spreads false info…Labrador x poodle dogs are not low maintenance grooming. They need to be brushed daily and taken to a groomer about once a month which can get expensive. There is no guarantee they will not shed or not trigger people with allergies, also there’s no breed standard and since they are mutts with no purpose they are often unhealthy and there’s basically no reputable breeders…
Poodles definitely stink when you wash them, then when the sun hits their fur 😳
Do you know well dogs breeds? I’m sure NO.
Where is the Italian Lagotto Romagnolo? Doesn’t smell, doesn’t shed, rustic, strong and hypoallergenic…. go and study better .
They are all cross breads/mongrels dogs are dogs love them or leave alone
How is Miniature Schnauzer not smelly? They have those mustaches that get dirty and with their saliva can smell a lot!
Pro tip: If you don’t want to groom an animal don’t get a pet.
Shih Tzu puppies are my favourite dog breed ever
Boston Terriers fart alot no? They do have odour in some way.
Labradoodle shed a lot…two of my friends have this breed and they are great dogs who never bark even when someone knocks on the door or company shows up…I’m confused how they are claiming they don’t shed a lot when they do
you literally said that boxers are good gaurd dogs 💀💀 for people trying to find the right dog breed for you, take it to google not this
we have yorkiepoo dosnt shed smells ok barcks a lot stubborn
All dogs shed. And when they aren’t shedding they are still shedding dander and dust. This is truly deceptive. And these dogs all shed after their hairs grow to their genetically predisposed length. But that still doesn’t stop them from being very dusty with constant skin cell sloughing (which is natural).
Labradoodles aren’t a breed 😣 please be mindful that there is no breed standard so none of what was said can be guaranteed. Granted that is true for any dog you buy, but buying from a breeder who breeds to standard is the way to go.
Love your videos! It’s really helpful 🙂
Earlyyyyyy😊

Lhasa Apso don’t shed I have bad allergies and no bad order at all, and they’re great with the whole family Very smart, but can be stubborn.
6:28 that is the dog I’m getting soon and I’m excited it’s on the video
I’m allergic to dogs and my dad said he’s going to get my and my brother a dog. So I’m trying to look for a dog that’s hyper allergenic, and that can spend time alone because my dad works a lot. Someone, please help😅
The poodles I’ve known (in my dogs social circle) – two standard and one miniature, stank, of poo. I’d check their rear ends, nothing stuck, just a stench. I nearly rear-ended a car once when the miniature one dropped hus guts once, it was visceral, I was convinced he’d shat all over the car, but it was just a fart😂.
What about chihuahuas? I have one and she has no dog’s smell!
Samoy dogs don’t smell but they shed
Maltese do smell a lot, I used to own one
