Do Pomskies Shed?

Short answer: YES!

Long answer: YES YES YES YES. šŸ¤£ In all seriousness though, this breed sheds as both the Siberian Husky and Pomeranian are both seasonal shedders. At around 1 year of age, puppies start their shed cycle. There is a big blow-out shed in the spring and one in the fall.

Pomskies with different coats shed differently:

  • Standard Coat - This coat tends to shed a lot all year round.

  • Plush Coat - This coat tends to shed a little all year, with a heavier seasonal blow-out than the Standard coat.

  • Wooley Coat - This coat sheds the least for most of the year. But when itā€™s time for a seasonal blow-out, it comes out in large clumps.

Things you can do to mitigate the fur in the house:

  1. Brush daily with the correct brushes (read more on grooming here)

  2. When you see your dogā€™s fur changing texture and starting to drop more fur, take them the groomer for a ā€œDe-shed - using de-shedding shampoo/conditioner, blow out, sanitary trim and butt skirt shapingā€. Clipping or shaving the fur makes shedding worse. Never use a Furminator or a grooming tool with a blade that cuts fur.
