I'm saying that's what they were bred for, service dogs for people with allergies. About being 100 percent sure I couldn't say, as there are varying degrees of severity among dog allergies, so I'd guess the people who have it the worst would still ...
Kind of like a used car salesman that knows nothing of cars and he crosses a volkswagon with a 4x4 chevy truck and then brags your gonna get the size of the truck with the great gas mileage of the bug or a bug that can climb mountains.. ...
It sounds like Brooklyn needs to be in his crate any time you're not actively engaged in walking him, training him, grooming him or playing with him. When he comes in from outside he should go straight to the crate. For now, till he gets used to th...

I wasn't just talking about dogs I've owned, but dogs owned by neighbors, friends, relatives, co-workers and other acquaintances. I've never owned a mix myself, though I'd probably go that way next time. And I'd look first at the Pound.
Now, you take two dogs of two different breeds, and whelp a litter. Knowing how genetics works - why would ANYONE claim OR believe that breeding two breeds WITH health problems would ELIMINATE those problems? ...
