Help! my blood test allergy says i am very highly allergic to dogs! but i had a high shed dog for 4 years and nothing ever happened. must be wrong?

Breed differences: Allergy tests should be interpreted in the context of the patients symptoms. While the blood test detects allergic (ige) antibodies, it doesn't prove that symptoms will occur. Also, their are breed differences among dog allergic patients. Some breeds may trigger symptoms and others may not. An allergist can assist in interpretation of allergy tests.
