Interesting that you ask of dog. I have had a dog(s) in my life for 50 years. I am aware of their dander and allergy problems but I have never had any issue with them. I keep the well bathed, groomed and their coat is kept short, makes all things dog related, easier. Thanks for asking. The one I have is a "Morkie" a Maltese and Yorkie mix. Very small, good companion to have sit next to you. Easy to clean up behind. and a good walker. Two of those three things are beneficial to my stress reduction. Ill deal with the negative points as long as I get these positive.

Heck he is only 12 inches long 6 inches tall and 3 lbs or 2.?kg
