The Chronicles of Kira

Hello! My name is Kira, and I am a Black Russian Terrier. I was born on July 30, 2014 and this page is all about my life so far.

There is no room for humans when I sleep on the couch!!

Are you a nice cat? Hello? oh god run

[kirathebrt]

I try to play with my brother, but he doesn’t seem to like me!

[kirathebrt]

I just wanted a taste of mom's coffee!

If you or anyone you know live in Australia and are thinking about getting a dog, please consider saving one of these lucky sweethearts who made it out of the racing industry alive.

Someday maybe I’ll be this big and be able to jump this high :)

[kirathebrt]

That walk around the block was sure tiring! The sun was even out for a minute and I got so hot!

[kirathebrt]

My mom and I went to the beach today. My second trip ever!

[kirathebrt]

Purple dinosaur wants to go outside too!

[kirathebrt]

Last night my big brother, Luka, stole my dinner!! He even growled at me because I wanted some too :( Fortunately Mom made him leave so I could have a turn eating

[kirathebrt]

My very first trip to the beach! I'm still not too sure about getting in the water yet, but I did get my paws wet!

[kirathebrt]

Meet my new friend, Lucy!

Today we went on a drive to see my mom's step-grandma. I got to meet her and go for a walk in the park, now it's time for a nap!

"Mom! I can’t see when you brush my hair in my eyes!"

Baby girl’s fall is coming in :)

Growing up so fast! About 5 months in these pictures

My bf & I are looking into getting a puppy. We're temporarily living with his mum who has a German Shepherd, which sheds like crazy & my bf can't stand the hair. I also need a dog that's not too big as I'm quite weak due to illness, any suggestions?

You could take a look at your local pounds and rescues and ask if they have any puppies that don’t shed much hair. If not here are some low shedding breeds:- Yorkshire Terrier- Dachshunds- Poodle- Shih Tzu- Schnauzer- Boston Terrier- Maltese- Havanese- West Highland Terrier

[kirathebrt]

Do you want a small dog? A medium dog that? Active or a couch potato? Independent or wants to be with you always? Size and shedding are of course important, but choose the wrong breed for your lifestyle and you have set yourself up for disaster.

Just about every terrier breed is going to be smaller and shed very little if at all, with of course some exceptions. I have a soft spot for this spunky breed group :) Off the top of my head: Soft-coated Wheaton terrier Kerry blue terrier Bedlington terrier (they are so soft!) Lakeland terrier Norfolk & Norwich terriers Australian terrier Silky terrier Irish terrier Airedale Cairn terrier Cesky terrier Scottish terrier Border terrier

Wheatons and Airedales are a little larger breeds if you don't want to go too tiny. The Kerry Blue is a decent size as well.

There are of course dogs outside the terrier group which shed very little. It sounds like you may want to look at non-sporting and toy breeds. Here are a few not yet mentioned: Bichon frisée Poodles Brussels griffon Lhasa Apso Tibetan terrier (actually part of the non-sporting group)

Some other short haired, small to medium "shedding" breeds, but that don't actually shed all that much: Basenji Bull terrier and miniature bull terrier French bulldog Italian greyhound Whippet Lowchen Miniature pinscher

And of course, as always, there are plenty of dogs looking for their forever homes at your local shelters and even through breed specific rescue organizations!
