luvbeingamom (977.6 days ago) I am not a huge pet person so i am not sure i am the best to answer this question, but as a person with terrible pet allergies, i would have to say there is no way in a million years i would keep a pet in my house (b/c no amount of separating them will help, the dander would still be in the air/carpet/furniture) if my child was allergic. I feel miserable every time i am around a cat or dog for more than a few minutes. Even when i go to other`s homes i get stuffy, eyes are itchy and watery, and i get terrible headaches. I would never want a child to suffer that way b/c i was to selfish to find my animal a new home.
canadababy (977.7 days ago) My little brother was allergic to our cat growing up, but it was just sneezing occasionally..nothing too serious didn`t get rid of the cat. Now if my child was asthmatic or something, that`s a different story. But I`ve heard if you have a pet when you bring your baby home, those babies have fewer pet allergies. We have a german shepherd, I would hate to have to get rid of him because of *severe* allergies, but it wouldn`t really be a question for me, we`d have to find him a new home.

andy21 (977.8 days ago) i have a little Pomeranian/Chihuahua and she stays inside. if my baby was allergic, i’d keep the dog outside and away from anything the baby would be around, let the dog sleep in the laundry room/garage or something. but if my baby was super allergic, i’d have my family friend take her. if your baby is super allergic, do you know anyone who can take your dog? so you can still see and visit your pup?? or is it possible just to keep the dog and baby separate?
