| Other Dogs and Allergies Are there any other breeds of dogs besides Yorkies that are better for people with allergies? I have horrid allergies and most cats and dogs kill my allergies. With Lilly though, it's so lovely and I can snuggle her and everything and I'm fine . Are there other breeds that would possibly be like this?! Preferably small house dogs. Anyone else in the same boat as I am and have successfully owned other breeds?! Just wondering for future reference.

| Minature Schnauzers are hypoallergetic. They're a little bit bigger, tho. Probably go up to 25 lbs. I have seens schnauzer & yorkie mixes tho, they're call snorkies. They are so cute! Of course, having yorkie genes in them! I grew up with 2 and they are a great breed!!
