Maybe: People with dog allergy may experience symptoms around some dogs, but not all dog breeds. In some cases, dog allergy may resolve spontaneously.

Maybe: Allergy to dogs varies in severity, so it depends on the extent of your involvement with the dogs. You can always get tested to see where you stand.
