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. | It's definitely a dog and cat allergy. I had to quit being a groomer for the shelter because I couldn't handle the after affects. I also get the same way after thoroughly dusting the house.
Also, Kaji spends no time outside during the week. I take yin on an outfit either Saturday or Sunday and he gets a bath right after the outing. Even after a bath on the weekend, by Tuesday or Wednesday, is when I have a little trouble. It's nothing severe, but it does bother me a little. |
