[nagdu] Now Experimenting with Poodles

[Danielle Sykora]

Hi everyone,
Poodles are only considered "hypoalergenic" because of their lack of
shedding, not because they produce less dander. Also, some dogs lick
their furr a lot so you could come into their saliva that way. I think
its a certain protein in the saliva that causes the alergic reaction.
Anyway, just my thoughts.
