4 mo old shedding

[fountainhead]

my puppy is shedding, and i was just wondering if that was normal…i had heard that puppy do not shed at all....and it's not real bad but if i pick him up i'll have lots of white hair on me. i live in las vegas nevada and it is starting to get pretty hot out here so could that be why?

He may be changing from puppy coat to adult coat. Puppy coat is soft and a little fuzzy, adult coat is smoother, and a little more coarse.

The only part that is true is "no" doggy odor…
