What Are Hypoallergenic Dogs?

Hypoallergenic dogs are breeds that produce fewer allergens, making them a suitable choice for allergy sufferers. While no dog is completely hypoallergenic, these breeds shed less, release minimal dander, and are known for their compatibility with individuals prone to pet allergies (American Kennel Club, 2023).

Which Dogs Are Hypoallergenic?

If you’re wondering “What dogs are hypoallergenic?”, here are some of the most popular allergy-friendly breeds:

Small Hypoallergenic Dog Breeds

  • Yorkshire Terrier – Silky, single-layer coat with minimal shedding (The Kennel Club, 2022).

  • Maltese – Long, flowing hair that requires regular grooming but produces little dander (American Kennel Club, 2023).

  • Shih Tzu – A luxurious double coat that traps dander, reducing allergens in the air (Mayo Clinic, 2021).

  • Havanese – Soft, wavy coat that doesn’t shed much (American Veterinary Medical Association, 2022).

  • Bichon Frise – A curly coat that traps allergens and requires regular trimming (American Kennel Club, 2023).

  • Toy & Miniature Poodles – Highly intelligent, curly-coated dogs that are great for allergy sufferers (The Kennel Club, 2022).

Medium & Large Hypoallergenic Dog Breeds

  • Standard Poodle – One of the most well-known hypoallergenic breeds with a dense, curly coat (American Kennel Club, 2023).

  • Portuguese Water Dog – A wavy or curly coat that sheds very little (National Institutes of Health, 2021).

  • Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier – A silky, single-layer coat that doesn’t shed excessively (American Veterinary Medical Association, 2022).

  • Labradoodle (F1B & Multi-Gen) – When bred with a Poodle-dominant coat, Labradoodles can be hypoallergenic (Australian Labradoodle Association, 2022).

  • Goldendoodle (F1B & Multi-Gen) – Similar to Labradoodles, they can have allergy-friendly coats when properly bred (Australian Labradoodle Association, 2022).

Looking for big hypoallergenic dogs? Consider the Standard Poodle or the Portuguese Water Dog, which are both large breeds with low-shedding coats.

Common Questions About Hypoallergenic Dogs

Are Hypoallergenic Dogs Real?

Yes! While no breed is completely allergen-free, hypoallergenic dogs have coats that produce less dander and saliva, reducing the chance of triggering allergies (Mayo Clinic, 2021).

Yes, but it depends on what you’re allergic to. Some people are sensitive to dander, while others react to saliva or urine. Choosing a hypoallergenic breed lowers the risk, but proper grooming and home care are still important (National Institutes of Health, 2021).

Most hypoallergenic breeds shed very little. Instead of shedding fur into the environment, their coats trap dander, which can be managed through regular grooming (American Kennel Club, 2023).

Hypoallergenic dogs typically have:

  • Curly or wavy coats (Poodles, Portuguese Water Dogs).
  • Minimal shedding fur (Bichon Frise, Maltese, Yorkies).
  • Hair instead of fur (Shih Tzus, Havanese).
  • Are Dachshunds hypoallergenic? – No, Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic because they shed dander (The Kennel Club, 2022).
  • Are Yorkies hypoallergenic? – Yes! Their silky, hair-like coat produces less dander than most breeds (American Kennel Club, 2023).
  • Are Pomeranians hypoallergenic? – No, they have a double coat that sheds frequently (Mayo Clinic, 2021).

How to Reduce Allergens at Home

Even with a hypoallergenic dog, keeping allergens low is essential. Here are some tips:

  • Brush your dog regularly to remove dander.
  • Bathe them with an allergen-reducing shampoo.
  • Use an air purifier with a HEPA filter.
  • Wash your dog’s bedding frequently.
  • Keep them off fabric furniture if allergies are severe.
