Yes, I LOVE the low shed part... I can wear black pants around Moses and not look like I own a dog when I leave the house. His single purpose in life seems to be to keep us laughing, and he's actually very good at it. Not having had a dog even remotely like him before, I am really impressed. We've always had working/guard type dogs such as rotties, Shepherds, or border collies. While I loved them all, I did have to be more cautious with them around children and strangers, and the hair they shed was a mess!
As far as a family pet for people with kids and allergies I think Moses is ideal. He and my 2 yr old granddaughter stand nose to nose... she giggles, he wiggles, and they simply adore each other. It's just SO cute! He's about 60 lbs now, will be a yr old next month... and is super gentle with her in spite of his rather clumsy movements. Our neighbors 4 and 5 yr olds love him too. if they stand still, so does he. If they jump around, he bounces around them like a clown. The younger one is usually scared of dogs because she was brutally attacked by a husky a couple of years ago, but Moses has managed to win her over in spite of his size. He's a cutie and my vet says he's well put together for his breed, etc. but the main reason I'd like to breed him is to pass on his personality. His first 4 months of life were spent in a kennel with little human interaction, so I can only imagine what he'd be like if he'd have been properly socialized from birth like he should have been! I plan to look for a female that's as sweet natured as he is. At this point I really don't even know what price to charge for pups. I've seen them advertised for anywhere from $350 - $2500! That's quite a range! I will most likely keep to the lower end just beacuse I really want families with children to be able to have the pups.
