Hypoallergenic pets: Dog and cat breeds for allergy sufferers

No specific dog or cat breed has been deemed completely hypoallergenic, according to the American Kennel Club. But, breeds such as the bichon frise, Havanese and Yorkshire terrier are known to be gentle in their effects on allergy sufferers.

These 12 breeds are either furless or have coats that don’t shed, eliminating the chances of hair becoming an irritant.
