Hypoallergenic Dogs

I found additional information last evening. Surprising how little I knew about the subject.

"Hypoallergenic pets" are breeds of pet animals (e.g., some breeds of dogs) that are less likely to trigger allergic reactions in people who are sensitized to the pet species (e.g., in people generally allergic to dogs).
Hypoallergenic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hypoallergenic is not a scientific definition, but is used to define products that are safer for most people to use.

So, even if a breed is known to be safer for most, there are poor souls who could be severely affected by the proteins shed by a particular animal.
