One of the frequently asked question about the Chinese Crested is whether they are an allergy free dog. Or, if a person with dog allergies can safely have a Crested as a pet without all the annoying side effects that a person with dog allergies suffers. I sometimes cringe when I read or hear other people talk about dog allergies and the Crested to prospective buyers who are looking for a pet for their child or themselves because they have heard they are an allergy free dog so a safe dog to have as many people heard it from others who have heard it and so forth. And like free medical advice, be wary, you get what you pay for. The only person who can truly tell you if you will have an allergy problem with any dog is yourself, period. Barring that, take the advice from someone else that has dog allergies and has a Chinese Crested or two and ask them. I do have severe dog allergies and a son with asthma and I have had Cresteds for a number of years and this is my experience and advice on the topic of dog allergies and the Chinese Crested.

What makes a dog allergy free?
How much time do you have to ensure your dog is allergy free?
In a nutshell, these are the two basic questions you need to understand and be honest with yourself about before you consider bringing a dog into your house and family.
