The safest option: Is avoidance of dogs. If you feel that is not an option for you - would encourage you to see an allergist for possible desensitization tx.

Allergen avoidance: I agree that avoiding exposure to the dog, dog hair and dog dander is important in allergy management. Careful vacuuming and cleaning can help reduce the exposure indoors.
