Pomeranian dog question about hair and shedding?

Ive had my male-pup now for 6 years (he's jjust as playful as a newborn is still); But over the years ive one from playing with him and holding him and loving on him to just a pat on the head and let him walk around the yard with me. I feel very guilty about it , as i can tell he misses being in my lap and me holding him and such. But i cant take the dog hair on me anymore its just unbareable. Over 3 years ago, we put up a child gate to keep the dog in the kitchen/laundry area only and when we go outside and into the garage( hangout area, ac/heat, pooltable ). Anyway, we brush the dog daily, monthly baths. He walks outside and the grass alone is covered in hair badly. Their must be a answer. im honestly just going to find some dirty house, with non clean type people to take him too, so he can get the attention he needs, from people who dont care about the house gets and ow dirty they get with hair( trust me i know people like this exist, ive seen them, and avoid them once i see thats hw they are..).. Is their ANY product out thier that will solve this problem?without shaving the dog down to skin only?? or would shaving him down to skin only and letting only a new coat come it solve the problem completely??

    Diet is a big factor in coat quality and shedding, so if he's on a low quality diet you should start there. Honestly, you seem to have such contempt for people with dog hair in the house, yet you feel you're the better person for isolating what should be a beloved pet of 5 years because you don't want to run the vacuum more than you have to. I have my fair share of heavy shedders. I sweep and vacuum daily and no one would come to my home, look around and say I live in filth. I CHOOSE to do extra work to keep my home clean to provide a PERMANENT home to the dogs I made a LIFETIME commitment to

    Pomeranians are dogs which naturally shed and lose hair. This is the only down point of this sweet dog. Shaving is the only option!

    shaving will just make it worse

    take to vet and have checked for medical problem

    byb over breeding is all i can think of

    daily combing should solve it

    what do you feed?

    how do you comb?

    if you can't take, yes take to breed rescue
