[NAGDU] Hypoallergenic Dogs: Truth or Myth

[Michael Hingson]

I agree with this article. However, it also is true that breeds such as poodles do tend not to effect most people with dog allergies. If you speak with knowledgeable trainers from guide dog schools they will tell you that even poodles do spread dandruff. However, again, what comes off poodles, for example, tends not to effect most people.

I do have a problem with the author saying to consider bathing a pet dog twice a week. This would regularly wash natural oils from the dog's coat.


Best Regards,

I see that so called hypoallergenic dogs are discussed on the list, why do we spread a myth? Hypoallergenic dogs don’t exist, period. Link: https://www.nationwidechildrens.org/family-resources-education/700childrens/2020/11/myth-hypoallergenic-dog
