We don’t know what type of dogs they used or their methods of testing the environment. Also, we don’t know what type of environment was tested, were windows open most of the time, was a filtering system used in some homes? This was not a closely controlled experiment, so to me it means nothing. My nose and eyes can tell the difference between hypoallergenic dogs and those that aren’t! |
I have to agree!! I am slightly allergic to dogs. The difference between my yorkies and my cocker spaniel for example makes a huge difference. For example, anytime I groom my cocker or our border collie mix I end up sneezing really bad and will get a rash for a short time. When I groom my yorkies, nothing happens.
