Hypoallergenic Dog Breeds

March 09, 2017 - PRESSADVANTAGE -

The Pet Spa at Soap.Club, a natural pet shampoo company based out of Vaughan, Ontario, Canada, offers advice to pet loving allergy sufferers that long to adopt a dog.

The American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology, (ACAAI) estimates that approximately 10% of the North American population is allergic to dogs. Dander is the main cause of most pet allergies in humans. Hypoallergenic dog breeds are those which have a non-shedding coat that produces less dander, making them less likely to cause serious reactions in pet owners.

The American Kennel Club (AKC) currently lists 19 specific dogs breed which are considered hypoallergenic. Jack Widmer Pet Spa manager informs that “No breed of dog is 100% hypoallergenic, there are, however, a variety of breeds that do well with allergy sufferers.” Hypoallergenic dogs come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes; the Afghan Hound, Standard Poodle, Standard Schnauzer, Portuguese Water Dog, and Shih Tzu are a few of the breeds found to have less of an effect on their human companion’s allergies.

According to Widmer, “Close management of the dog’s hygiene is essential to keeping allergic reactions to a minimum. It is necessary to bathe your hypoallergenic pet regularly to remove dander and other irritants. Yet, hypoallergenic dog breeds also have sensitive skin, and many pet lovers realize that frequent bathing with traditional pet shampoos containing harsh chemicals will dry out their skin and coat.”

Use of a natural dog shampoo is preferred by many pet lovers as a means to prevent dryness of their best friend’s skin. The Pet Spa Hypoallergenic Pet Shampoo and Conditioner is made with no artificial colours or dyes, no preservatives, and contains no harsh chemicals. It is formulated to hydrate and nourish the pet`s dry or sensitive skin while relieving irritation and itchiness.

The combination of having a hypoallergenic breed of dog, and bathing it regularly with a natural hypoallergenic dog shampoo, provides many dog lovers with the joys of a pet while keeping allergic reactions to a minimum. It is recommended to visit a specific breed to gage potential allergic reactions, and consulting with a breeder or breed specific rescue group before adopting.
