I can't give you a definate answer on this matter... but my pup which is coming to it's 3rd month is shedding pretty heavily... my guess is it'll start at 2nd month up till god knows when... i'm praying that it'll end fast... the amount of fur sticking to my body.. i think i ate some... ughh.. and my throat is feeling uncomfortable... gonna groom him today... The one you love is the one that should take you higher

When pups are born, they ahve this soft velvety downy coat, after they reach 3 to 4 months, you will notice it shedding a lot and later a different textured coat can be seen.... it won't be much different from puppy coat but it's more glossy.... Willy, my beloved shih tzu (22 March 1994- 8 August 2005) May you rest and live happily in Rainbow Bridge with the rest. You will forever be deeply missed by all. Puppies and kittens, helpless and innocent are always roaming the streets as strays. Adopt from animal shelthers to save them. THEY NEED YOUR HELP AND LOVE
