This was a person in a pet store. She said she vacumed her dog regularly and it helped with her kids allergies.

Hummm -- I'm not upset at all. I think it would be a terrific training opportunity (you would have to train Jackson to tolerate the vacuum) and perhaps it would help with the allergies. I would definately use one that has gentle suction, though, or you might injure him.

With the Boxer and the Miniature horses I used an Electrolux which had powerful suction. It was great to vacuum the dander and dust before parades.
