Breeds of Hairless Dogs: who they are?

Breeds of Hairless Dogs

Having a dog without hair means that you will have to spend zero money in grooming and anything related to it. This is one advantage of hairless dogs. Their genetic composition means that they will not give you allergies or need vaccines.

Probably not too fascinating when it comes to looks, but you would have an equally loving pooch, that is allergy-free, exotic, and a great friend. However, they are not maintenance-free. A bare skin means that these dogs breeds are more affected by the sun and they require special care to keep the skin healthy.
