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.

buying a home where dogs have lived (itching allergies)

Hi
I am looking for a house to buy
when I go to look at a house where they had pets, my body itches after 30 minutes
if I buy a house, is it possible to get rid of these sources of itching
if yes
how long it takes?

Re: buying a home where dogs have lived (itching allergies)

You will have to clean the house very thoroughly before moving in. Wash all washable surfaces and vacuum everything, including walls. Also wash all curtains and any other fabrics that remain in the house after the pet owners have moved out. Floor-to-floor carpets will be the hardest ones to clean. You could try a carpet cleaning service that specializes in eliminating pet dander etc., but your best bet is to replace the carpets. Open all windows to air out the dog dander as much as possible.
