Research Notes on Obama Family and Hypoallergenic Dogs
President-elect Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, promised their two daughters that whether or not their daddy won the election, they would get a puppy. The Obamas now face a common dilemma. Their oldest daughter has a dog allergy, so they've publicly discussed their intention to find a hypoallergenic dog.1
Fast Facts:
- Using an air purifier, keeping the dog out of the allergy sufferer's bedroom, and having family members wash their hands after playing with the dog are a few ways to decrease the chances of an allergic reaction.2
- Allergy-friendly dog breeds produce less dander and with regular grooming can keep allergens reduced to a tolerable level.3
- Allergens originate in a dog's skin, urine, and saliva which means even hairless dogs can cause an allergic reaction.4
