Weimaraner dogs are as clean as cats and don't shed. They are kind of on the larger side though

Soft Coated Wheaten TerrierAiredale TerrierPortuguese Water DogIrish Water SpanielSchnauzer (Standard)Just a few examples....Also, remember that just because a dog doesn't shed much, doesn't mean that it will be easier on the allergies. It all depends on the dog's dander, which every dog has and "releases". As for poodle mixes, mixing a high-shedding dog (lab or similar) to a poodle does not make it a low-shedder.

dachshunds . they are so perfect for family's. if u have young children who are scared of the dark or don't want to sleep alone this dog is perfect, they love cuddling. mine sleeps in my room every night shes 13 and still is going strong. plus they hardly shed at all.

How about a Glen of Imaal Terrier? They are medium sized and do not shed. They are also very friendly and very playful!http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/glenimaalterrier.htm

A Labrador Retriever would be the perfect dog for you. They have all the qualities you need and then some.
