It's more the weed pollen that does it to you at this time of year.

Colleen is miserable around the stuff. Allergies are annoying, I was ready to buy a pug but I found out she couldn't handle it. I acted like I didn't care but I did. :?

That's too bad, Michael. Is she allergic to all dogs? I think I remember reading something about how you could get genetically engineered dogs that didn't cause allergy problems.

I can get hypoallergenic dog breed which won't be a problem for her or most people with allergies.

My brother and his wife have two Chinese Crested. Great dogs for people with bad allergies.

Dude, a pug? Come on.

Out of that list, I'd go with the Basenji or Bichon. Everyone I know that's owned a Bichon loved it.

Our neighbors have a Bichon. Cool dog. Also, kids my daughter used to babysit for have a pug. If you don't mind constant snorting, panting and drooling, it might be the dog for you.

My wife's coworker breeds and shows Portuguese Water Dogs, also on the hypo list. They're a little bigger than a Bichon.

Pugs = meh
Puggles (part beagle, part pug) = ADORABLE!!!! Seriously, a person in our neighborhood has one, what a cute dog!
