The Best Hypoallergenic Dog Breeds

3. Poodle Mixes

Poodles have become a popular dog to breed with other dogs, and many of these mixes are low-allergy breeds. The labradoodle, a Labrador-poodle mix, was originally bred to be a guide dog for people with allergies and was the breed that started the trend. Other breeds include the Goldendoodle, Schnoodle, Yorkipoo, and cockapoo. First-generation mixes are those with one poodle parent and one parent of another breed. First-generation mixes may not have the low-allergy characteristics of their poodle parent, though breed characteristics become more predictable in subsequent generations.
