My friend is extremely allergic to all cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits you name it!! However, he wanted a dog and thought he couldn't. I suggested the Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, we found one, he licked my friends neck and hands and he had NO reaction and has now been an owner of one for 3 yrs. the only time he does get a slight reaction is if there is rough housing between mine (scwt) and his, then the dander can fly. You're best bet is to go to a reputable breeder and test yourself, licking and petting etc. good luck--you'll luv it!

My son has a lot of allergies and many doctors told us to try a poodle, portugese water dogs, westies. He had reactions around all of them. We have two wheaton terriers now and my son is doing fine. I would go to a breeder and spend some time with the pup. good luck!
