Hi Judy! This is a 100% wool rug, so you should expect some shedding. Kaleen Rugs, however, are handmade and often you'll find that handmade wool rugs shed a lot less than machine-made wool rugs. With proper care and treatment, most rugs stop shedding in three to six months, leaving you with a beautiful wool rug that can last up to 60 years!!
