The breed is known for its large and shiny coat, which is probably also what many people fall for in this breed. However, the coat sheds less than you would immediately expect, and that is only a plus. The coat is extremely beautiful when well-groomed and cared for. However, the coat requires careful brushing and styling at least once a week in order to avoid it from filtering, and you can easily set aside an hour for work. It is important to accustom the dog to this from the time it is a puppy, so that it does not end up becoming a problem later on.
