My Bellaboo's shedding was getting out of control. I had dog hair everywhere. I asked the old Vet if there was anything sort of shaving her that would help. He just said that was part of having a dog. The new Vet (fresh from school) said to put her on holistic food and I'd probably see a big difference. I did! She shedding stopped dramatically. The brand I buy is Blue, dry and canned. Since the food has no filler of any kind or gluten, she eats less and so poops less. I bought Blue for cats and my inside cat doesn't leave hair all over me when I pet him now. Everyone I know that has switched to the holistic pet food has said it was a miracle for the shedding problem.
