Are Feist dogs hypoallergenic?

No, Feist dogs are not hypoallergenic. These allergens mainly come from dander (tiny skin flakes), saliva, and urine. Even with their short fur, Feist dogs can still trigger allergies in sensitive people.

To manage fur buildup and allergens, weekly grooming is key to help remove loose hair and reduce dander. Giving your dog a bath about once a month can also help cut down on dander, but make sure to use a gentle dog shampoo to avoid skin irritation. 

Keeping your home clean is another vital step. Frequently wash your dog’s bedding and vacuum their favorite spots to minimize allergens. Air purifiers with HEPA filters can also improve air quality by trapping airborne allergens. For allergy sufferers, creating pet-free zones like bedrooms can provide additional relief.
