Take pick: You either have your stuffy nose from a virus or you are allergic to your dog. Tough call.

Antihistamines: Many people safely use over the counter Claritin (loratadine) or Loratadine and see if this helps - talk with your pharmacist about any meds you take as they are a valuable source of information for interactions, etc.
