99% with allergy live very good and comfortable with yorkies, becouse this breed of dogs has one a very important peculiarity – yorkies coved by the hairs (not fur!!!) the structure of which is very close to human hairs.

My mother is VERY allergic to dogs, but could not live without them. She got a Portuguese Water Dog a few years back and simply adores him. In fact, her allergies were not sparked by this breed of dog. Not everyone is the same though. There is NO hypoallergenic breed because the dander and sometimes saliva is what causes the allergic reactions. PWDs dont shed and have less dander than a considerable amount of the canine population. They dont drool and are the cutest darn things you would ever see! They are great family dogs, and I have two of my own!
here is a picture of a puppy! http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=h…
this is an adult http://www.mymac.com/img/blog/cade_new.j…
they come in Black, White and Brown with white markings, or black markings (if they’re white) and can be curly or wavy. The puppy in the picture is wavy and the adult in the picture is curly!

Not sure, but poodles’ coats have to be clipped as, I am told, they do not shed hair. Worth checking out. Get friend and poodle together and wait…

i have a yorkie-poo and my mother-in-law is very allergic to dogs, but she loves my puppy. Poodles don’t shed much and a yorkie’s hair is like ours so it’s the best of both worlds!

Check this out. Also, just google nonallergic dogs – several sites there.

Here are a few:
Chinese Crested
Portugese Water Dog
Poodle (or any poodle mixed dog breeds)
Bichon Frise
Kerry Blue Terrier
Those are the only dogs that I can think of (right off the top of my head!). I hope that I helped you and your friend! Thanks,

Hello Tifferz,
My recommendations are:
American Hairless Terrier
Hairless Khala
Peruvian Inca Orchid
Xoloitzcuintle
As you mention, the fur is normally the reason for dog/cat allergies.
The above breeds are fur-less, or virtually fur-less. The American Hairless Terrier would probably be ideal for anyone with an allergy.
A Search Engine search will give you plenty of information on all these breeds.
However, buying one of the above breeds will probably be quite expensive.
I hope this has been of some help and good luck.
