Is an Irish Setter hypoallergenic?

No, Irish Setters are not hypoallergenic. They have a double-layered coat with a soft undercoat and a silky outer coat. While they only shed moderately, their fur still produces dander, which is a common pet allergen. 

It’s important to know that no dog breed is entirely hypoallergenic. Some people with allergies may tolerate certain breeds or individual dogs more than others, but there are no guarantees. If you have allergies and are considering getting an Irish Setter or any other breed, it’s best to spend time around them beforehand to see how you react. Additionally, regular grooming and keeping your home clean can help reduce allergens and minimize allergic reactions.
