So birds molt and dogs shed. : ) In any case, yes shorthairs can shed allot depending on weather temps, how much they are in the house, food, etc. I have to clean my wood floors at least two or three times a week if I want to keep them somewhat free of dog hair (I have 4 shorthairs). If your dog does not have thin hair or bald spots I would say it is probably normal. Pretty soon though I would expect him to start getting a winter coat and the shedding should be minimal.

Our female hardly sheds but our male was shedding constantly. Not just blowing out his summer coat but it was constant. He wasn't bald or anything but we noticed since we put him on grain free with Omega 3 he sheds much less. Plus I brush him every morning but nothing is really coming out on the brush anymore
