Yes, Papillons shed alot! They have no under coat so will shed year round but you don't get a seasonal "blowing" of the coat, and in the case of a female, the amount of hair found on furniture is doubled when they go through their heat cycle.

If you don't want to deal with...
The fragility of toy breeds (see below)
Excessive daintiness and timidity, suspiciousness, or highstrung temperaments in some lines, or when not socialized enough
Chasing instincts (birds, mice, flying insects) from their spaniel heritage
Regular brushing and combing
Shedding
Barking
Housebreaking difficulties, especially in the cold and rain
A Papillon may not be right for you.

PRICEY!!!
Lots of work
Breeding takes a while, so you might have to wait for a while before you get your dog
