If you find yourself sneezing, itching, or experiencing other allergy symptoms whenever you are around your dog, it is possible that you have an allergy to your furry friend. Pet allergies are quite common, with up to 30% of the population being allergic to pets.

What is Dog Dander?
Dog allergies are typically caused by the proteins found in the pet’s dander (dead skin cells), saliva, and urine. When these proteins are inhaled or come into contact with your skin, they can trigger an allergic reaction in sensitive individuals. Common symptoms of dog allergies include sneezing, hives, stuffy or a runny nose, itchy skin or watery eyes, coughing, wheezing, skin rashes, and even shortness of breath in severe cases.
Did you know dog allergies can develop at any time, even if you have had dogs before without any issues? Sometimes, it might take months or even years for the symptoms to develop.
Can You be Allergic to Hypoallergenic Dogs?
Yes, you can! While certain “hypoallergenic” dogs might seem appealing, all dogs produce allergens. Some dog breeds that claim to be "hypoallergenic" include Poodles, Afghan Hounds, Bichon Frise, and more.
