Saying that he does love the cat really so I am sure once he has fallen in love with the dog he will forgive the hairs and I have tried to explain to him that even he sheds...
If the hubby is that adament to have a low shedding dog what on earth are they doing looking at a springer X malamute? I have seen this time and time again, she wants the cute puppy and so is kidding herself that once the dog gets settled the husband will be fine with the shedding. Can't see that happening myself, the poor thing will get settled then pushed onto the next owner...

Nice woman but just don't think this dog is for her, I'd keep looking if I were you - you said yourself theres no rush.
