People (not on YT) have suggested that I just "get rid" of my pup. Uh... not going to happen. When I accepted him, I made a promise to love and care for him for the rest of his life. Does anyone know if this will help?
Do you have seasonal allergies or dog allergies? I have really severe seasonal allergies (that last alllll year round). Of course, when the dogs come in the house from outside, they carry all of the pollen and such on their hair. At first my allergist said that I shouldn't have them and I quickly told her to get that idea out of her head, then she went on and said that I need to keep them in a separate part of the house and to definitely out of my bedroom. I said no to that also. The next suggestion was to wipe them down when they come from outside like with a pet wipe or a damp towel. I'm also supposed to take a shower after I come from outside. I try to do that and it helps. I don't know how often is too much for a dog to be bathed though so I can't really answer that.
