I just got a schnauzer a lower allergy breed. I have a 5 year old wheaten and nobody had any problems with him but this female schnauzer puppy is killing us already. Have to call the allergist in the morning and extremely stressed about the whole thing. Hope your cockapoo works out.

I'm sorry to hear that. Are you guys normally allergic to dogs? Maybe getting the second dog was just too much dander in the house. I hope things work out and your allergist can help you. Our puppy is coming in two days. I'm nervous about the allergies but hopeful that things will work out. If not, I'll be seeing my allergist too!
Take care and keep me posted.

Sorry to hear that! Are you guys normally allergic to dogs or is this a new thing? I wonder if adding a second dog to the household, and not the breed of dog, is what threw your allergies over the edge.
Let m know what the doctor says.

Jun 1, 07 - 10:40 PM Children and dog allergies question

My daughter has severe dog allergies. We have an AHT and she is able to tolerate her as long as we bath her and put lotion on her frequently and my daughter doesn't touch her face after touching the dog.

My problem is my grandmother has a daschund that she thinks she can no longer care for so she is adamant that my mother takes her daschund. My daughter is very close with my parents and this will be an issue for her(my duaghter has eczema as well as allergy induced asthma). We visit them at least once a week and she frequently spends the night there.

Can anyone advise me to any articles relating to daschunds and dog allergies? Any advise on how to handle the situation? It is very frustrating since my family acts like it isnt a big deal, and we make it a big deal...It is very serious for us...we used to have dogs that shed (prior to us knowing about her allergies) and we were in the hospital once per month for her asthma. Once we found new homes for the dogs almost all of my daughters symptoms went away. Our doctor said that she could have major problems and be hosptialized being around dogs, and that she cannot be around them even in backyards, etc.

Thank you!

Absolutely!!! Not for sure if this is the case for you but it sure is for me and CATS! Got rid of the cat and the inability to breath went away. Hope you feel better.

What changed in your life 4 months ago? There are a lot of things that will cause allergies besides pets. Have you started eating something new? The reaction you describe is what happens to me when I eat raw fruits and vegetables - I did not have this problem when I was young. I have no problem with them canned or cooked. An increase in stress can also cause these symptoms. The allergy doctors say I am allergic to dogs and cats, but I only have a problem with specific breeds of each. It may not be your pets - check for food allergies.

Aug 29, 07 - 6:32 PM Hives from one boxer but not the other

I have had my boxers their whole life. My female is 5 and my male is 2. I have never been allergic to my female, but every time i touch my male(newer) dog, i break out in an itchy rash. What is the difference, is there anything i can do. I feel bad because i have a totally different relationship with the male that the female. I know this sounds awful, but I try not to touch the male too much. Dont worry though, he is my husbands dog!!!

Your best bet is to make an appointment with an allergist (MD) and discuss your problem with him/her. While you are waiting for you appointment, you could try the over-the-counter antihistamine Claritin or any of its generic versions. Just look for loratadine as the active ingredient. It is non-drowsy.
