i already have a lovely jack russell x staffie bull that we rescued and i had terrible allergies with my nose and skin when we first had him, thankfully he doesn't make me sneeze as much now i am use to him but my skin still suffers terribly, so i really don't wanna get another dog that affects me in the way, so does anyone have any ideas?x x x x

Well... you could always get a hairless kind of dog or a kind of dog with very short, or you could shave a dog. not to be inhumane or anything, but this is all I could think of. I don't own a dog. more of a cat person myself.

Id say something that does not lose it fur such as a poodle or a maltes. They are your best bet.

I would recommend a Portuguese water dog. I have a severe dog allergy but have kept Portie's for many years. They are great family dogs with bags of personality, but can be a little lively and need quite a lot of exercise. I find them very loyal and obedient.

Australian Silkie Terriers don't shed, have long hair and engaging personalities. Even people with asthma seem to be able to share a home with them. Have you ever used AllerPet shampoo? Can be found in most pet supply stores and they make formulas for both dogs and cats. As you know, it is usually the dander which provokes the allergies, and if you bathe your pet every two weeks, your reactions will lessen. Might try that with your Jack Russell/Staffordshire cross as well.

Generally, dogs with shorter hair tend to shed more and affect people with allergies. Try a longer haired dog, like a long haired dachsund. The only draw back to this is that you'll have to groom the dog pretty often to keep the hair from knotting and matting. Best of luck!

A poodle, as they don't lose there coats.
