«There's really
no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog,» says Dr. McGrath.
Keep in mind that there is

«Unfortunately, there really is
no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog,» Dr. Jonathan Field, emeritus director of the pediatric allergy and asthma clinic at New York University / Bellevue Medical Center in New York City.

no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog.
