A long time ago—somewhere between 20,000 and 40,000 years—a group of hunter-gatherers in continental Europe began a symbiotic relationship with a group of wolves that gathered at the edge of their camp. This relationship eventually became a sort of domestication, and this pack of wolves began acting like modern-day village dogs: friendly with people but not living in specific households or acting very “pet-like.” Eventually, ancient peoples began breeding these semi-domesticated dogs for certain skills, like hunting, herding, and guarding. The rest is history.
Throughout the years, dogs have more than earned their title as man’s best friend. Loyal, hard-working, and lovable, dogs are the most popular pet in the United States. As of 2020, some 50 million households owned at least one dog. That said, the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America reports that an estimated three in 10 people with allergies are allergic to dogs and cats. For many, this sensitivity to dander and other pet allergens keep them from getting a pup, regardless of how much they may want one.
Here’s some good news for those allergy-prone would-be owners: There are a handful of dog breeds that are actually hypoallergenic. Low-shedding or with a coat that more closely mirrors human hair than dog fur, these breeds are suitable for those with animal sensitivities, and their presence won’t leave you sneezing or with watery eyes.
In the following slides, Nom Nom has determined the most popular small hypoallergenic dogs using 2019 data (released on May 1, 2020) from the American Kennel Club dog breed popularity rankings and dog breed characteristics. Each dog breed on this list is registered by the American Kennel Club, is small in size, and does minimal shedding—a common cause of allergies in pet owners.
