When I first got her, the Vet did say that she would shed due to the stress of a new environment. I know that when Princess went into heat,afterwards she shed lot too, but by the second month it did lighten up.The same thing happened after Princess was spayed. That's not what I am seeing with Gigi.

MJ,
That’s a very good point that you make regarding being comfy in the home. I wondered if Jack’s shedding had anything to do with the fact that I just adopted him and he’s still adjusting to his new surroundings.
I've been using the Pledge fabric sweeper for pet hair.... it is disposable. I find it does a credible job. Benji is short coat and sheds year round. Not so much now that it is colder and she is more comfy living with us.

Does a Chi Ever stop shedding? Gig finished her heat by the end of Aug. Then at the end of Sept she got spayed. So I expected she would go through a heavy shed due to hormonal changes. But now that two months have passed, I don't see the shedding lighting up, if anything it's worse. I thought that after two months from the spaying that she would stop shedding. Is this normal for a Chi? Do they shed all year around?
Also I have two old fantastic lint removers that work great for Eskie fur, but don't for Chi fur. It's like the chi fur sticks into the material like needles. What brand and type do you ladies use to get it off of your clothes and furniture?
