Choose an Allergy Free Dog - Make a list of the allergy free dogs (see Resources) in which you are interested.
Consider the size of your home. A large breed hypoallergenic dog, such as a Standard Poodle, would be a poor choice for a person who lives in loft apartment. A better choice in this case is a Yorkshire Terrier.
Think about your activity level. Some dogs, such as Terriers, are very active breeds. If you purchase an active dog, you will need to make sure that it gets a lot of exercise.
Take your household composition into account. If you have children, a puppy will probably be a good choice since puppies are usually active. An older dog is a good option for adults.
Determine the time you have to care for the dog. Some allergy free dogs, such as Yorkshire Terriers, have long coats that require frequent washing and brushing. Keep in mind that the dog will also have to be fed, walked and played with on a daily basis.
In the past, people believed that if they suffered from allergies, they couldn't have a dog. It is now known that many different dog breeds are good options for people who have allergies. Choosing a hypoallergenic dog takes a lot of consideration.
