re: pwd allergies

I have rather severe dander allergies and have lived my entire life with poodles for this reason. I now have a 6 month old PWD (as well as a Standard Poodle) and have had absolutely NO allergy problems at all. I have been in several PWD homes with multiple animals, also with no problems. My suggestion is to go visit (indoors) with a PWD family for a few hours!
