Now You Can Rid Yourself Of Your Dog Allergy!
Do you love dogs, but are sadly allergic to them? That s really unfortunate, but it is a reality you have to accept. If you insist on keeping a dog in your home despite your allergy, you must learn how to be resourceful and courageous about your particular affliction. You must be willing to do research as to the possibilities of dog ownership, symptoms prevention, as well as allergy elimination. Your resolve to be a pet owner despite your dog allergy is enough to bring you half-way to success.
With much admiration for your conviction, we furnish you a list of steps you can take to reduce your dog allergy symptoms. Just to get it out of the way though, we have to state that complete avoidance of dogs will work best for your allergy. And now, dodging your dagger looks, we proceed with the list.
Pet
Bathe him frequently, perhaps even twice a week.
Rid your pet of allergens that collect on his coat. Wipe him down or rinse his coat with plain water. Other allergens mixed with even just a little dander can still launch a dog allergy attack in you.
Give your pet a daily brushing and, if possible, spray him with allergy-reducing products. It is best to do your brushing outdoors.
Make sure that your dog s skin is healthy by giving him the necessary nutrients in his diet and food supplement.
Do not risk your pet breeding and increasing the number of allergen sources. Have him fixed.
On Your House
Keep your bedroom dog-free. Close the door and air vents to your room and use an electric heater instead.
Make sure your dog stays off carpets. Have him spend a lot of time outdoors.
Vacuum as often as possible.
In aid of allergy elimination, provide your home with an air cleaner.
Get rid of carpeting. If this is impractical, steam-clean this frequently along with your upholstered furniture.
Wash sheets and curtains and change them as often as possible.
Don t allow your dog to climb on furniture. Wipe down all hard surfaces to remove dander, which is the usual cause of dog allergy.
On Your Body
Talk to an allergist and discuss your options regarding dog allergy elimination.
Arm yourself with allergy relief products.
Avail of allergy shots.
Always wash your hands after handling your pet or any of her things.
It is certainly a lot of work, but you did say you were willing to make sacrifices. Your love for your pet and her response to that love should help you manage the discomfort or even encourage dog allergy elimination.
