Allergic to Dogs? - discussion board

Welcome! This board is for sharing information, experiences, suggestions, and questions among pet allergy sufferers (people allergic to dogs). It is not intended to replace advice from medical professionals. Always contact your own allergy specialist for the diagnosis and treatment of your allergies!

There is NO "non-allergic" (no allergy causing) dog breed! All dogs produce dander, saliva, and urine that people can be allergic to. However, some dog breeds supposedly produce less dander than others. These breeds are often referred to as being "hypo-allergenic" (LESS LIKELY to cause an allergic reaction) or "allergy friendly". Read more.

For more allergy messages, visit the "Allergic to Dogs?" bb archives.

You can switch between two different board styles by clicking on the "switch to threaded style" or "switch to board style" link. I like the board style because it puts the latest messages on the top.

Please, use descriptive subject lines.

All of a sudden alergic to my dog

We have a ****sui. Is it possible after 1 1/2 years to all of a sudden to start becoming allergic to my dog? I went to the doctor and he prescribed some meds, but it makes me sleep all day. Now the baby is starting to show redness around the eyes. I dont want to gt rid of my dog but my baby, who is just 8 mos comes first. Any suggestions?[:-|

Re: All of a sudden alergic to my dog

It is very possible to all of a sudden be allergic to your dog, especially after being pregnant. I had a long hair cat and a boston terrier for 6 years with no allergy problems at all. They both slept in my bed. No long, 3 or 4 mon, after my first baby was born I started getting itchy eyes and sneezing, before long the animals could not sleep with me, then I couldn't even let them in my room, and by 2 years I couldn't pet either one without immediately washing my hands, and then sometimes I still needed benedryl. Four yrs later I was able to handle the cat if I washed my hands and face immediately afterwards. Then came the 2nd baby and the allergies became stronger, and with the third I was living with the cat, but not in my bed room and very rarely touching him. This was 7 years after I first started showing allergic reactions. The doctors I spoke to said that our bodies can change over time, but for women it is more common during preg. due to chemical changes and harmones.
