The Bolognese often appears on lists of dogs that allegedly do not shed (moult). It is true that these dogs do not seasonally moult or lose large amounts of fur as many other breeds do. However, they do eventually lose and replace individual hairs, similar to human hair growth cycles. They are highly intelligent, quick to learn, and easy to train, but can be very stubborn when they don't get their way. A Bolognese will quickly train to potty pads and a bell-ringing notification system for taking potty breaks outside.
