Cross Breeds

What types of dogs are small, non-shedding, and good looking?

I want to get a dog, but it needs to be small, non-shedding, and it can't be a dog that looks like the recipient of The Ugliest Dog in the U.S. award...Does anyone have any ideas of any breeds? Not a Bichon Frise, please, because i already have one.

1. I would suggest you ask your local vet
2. maltese, mini poodle although i dont i dont reccomend either, very yappy dogs but they are small and non shedding
3. All dogs shed. Some shed less than others. So, it has to be small, minimal shedding and not look like a Chinese Crested. You can go with a Shih Tzu, Yorkshire Terrier, Maltese. That's a few that fits your description.
4. how bout a standard poodle? or a dog the the Obama is going to get, the Portuguese water dog?
5. BOXER!!
6. Poodle Maltese mix they sell them hypoallergic! My friend has one she is hilarious and SO cute!
7. I've always loved Black Labs and they are my favorite dogs. My black lab is the best dog any one could want. Plus she doesn't shed all that much but I think it would be hard to find a dog that doesn't shed at all. And she is not that big, but kind of the perfect size if you know what I mean. EDIT: I didn't say small I said not that big.
8. get a havanese! our cocker spaniel just died, so we were looking for a dog that didn't shed, didn't bark, didn't have any medical problems. and a havanese was it! They grow to be about 12 pounds, listed below is a website with all the details :) hope this helps
9. a pumpet it small and real cute
10. WESTIES!!!!! They don't shed, you can show them, they are really cute and small too! Can i just say not all dogs shed- thats poppycock. And labradors, standard poodles and schnauzars are NOT small!!
