Are stokeshire Doodles Hypoallergenic?

While, no animal is technically "hypoallergenic" some people can be allergic to things other than fur like a dog's saliva or urine. Stokeshire Doodles have allergy friendly properties due to them being crossed with Poodles, making them suitable for individuals who suffer from mild to moderate pet allergies. If you or someone in your home has severe allergies we recommend additional testing before deciding to get on our waiting list. * This does not apply to any of our purebred puppies. Doodles do shed (although some may drop less hair than other dogs), and they aren’t truly hypoallergenic. Fact is, there’s no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog. Allergens are carried in dander (dead skin cells), saliva and urine, so they’re impossible to escape. It is true that some dogs produce fewer allergens than others, but you can’t assume that Doodle dogs across the board won’t set off allergies if you or a family member suffers from them. Spend some time with several of them before getting one. Furthermore, we recommend back crosses, F1B Doodles for those who want to avoid as much shedding as possible.

If you suffer from dog allergies, we recommend a consult with both your doctor & local vet.
