My sister has very bad allergies, we had a yorkie when we were young and she did very well with him, they are another breed that are good for people with allergies. We bathed our yorkie weekly to keep the dander and allergens down. In addition to yorkies my sister always did well around poodles, maltese, schnauzers, bischons and other dogs with those hair types. My sister is now wants another dog and is hoping to get a giant schnauzer.
