Can you make a dog less allergenic?

Brush your pet outside – this will reduce the number of allergens in your home, which can get everywhere, even places where the pet doesn’t go. Good ventilation is key – open those windows to ventilate the airborne and environmental allergens. Consider a special diet – there are some new and innovative diets on the market that aim to neutralise the amount of protein in the saliva, which causes allergic reactions. Cleaning the house – damp dusting frequently can reduce the number of allergens in the environment, plus regular vacuuming – consider a HEPA filter here too. However, some allergy sufferers can find a particular breed that keeps their allergies at a manageable level. Wash your hands after touching pets – if not touching a pet isn’t an option, just ensure you wash your hands afterwards, and avoid touching your face.
