Treating Your Dog Allergy

Did you know that living with an indoor dog can actually help a child to be safer from allergies ?  There is a chemical that dogs release called endotoxin that actually helps the immune system to develop which is beneficial for children.  Usually those that have a dog allergy have developed this sensitivity by being in contact with a dog after their immune system has already developed.  While dogs may be man’s best friend, a dog allergy can be very difficult for anyone to live with if they love their pet.  What can a person do in order to treat this sensitivity, other than send their pet away?

For one thing remember that the chemical that causes a dog allergy usually comes from their saliva and not their skin.  This is unlike a cat allergy , which is usually triggered by cat hair and dander.  A dog’s saliva contains albumin, which causes an allergic reaction in many.  So obviously the first thing you need to do when you have a dog allergy is keep the dog from licking your hands and face!  When the dog licks themselves this sticky protein is deposited on the hair along with dead skin cells.  When the dog hair comes into contact with dust, clothing, curtains, furniture, or you, the protein will stick to the surface of the object.  After playing or wrestling with your dog, this saliva can trigger an allergic reaction that lasts for hours.

It also helps to make sure the dog is outside as much as possible.  When the dog is indoors he will spread the allergen all around the house that much more, causing the reaction of your dog allergy.  It can also help to remove the carpeting in your house in as many rooms as possible; opt for hardwood floors in various rooms.  The less carpet you have, the less allergens will stay in the home.  For the carpeted rooms, vacuum often with a HEPA equipped vacuum cleaner.  Air cleaners can make a really big difference in the severity and frequency of allergy attacks.
