Hypoallergenic Dogs

To dog-loving allergy sufferers, a hypoallergenic dogs sounds like a dream come true. Unfortunately, there is just no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog. While sometimes allergies may be caused by a dog’s fur, often the real source of allergies is a protein that is found in a dog’s saliva. This protein sticks to the dried flakes of skin called dander which all dogs shed regardless of their type of coat or the amount of fur or hair they shed. So please don’t be fooled by the promise of a hypoallergenic dog.
