Tips for Pet Owners

The Obama family is not alone -- more than 20 million Americans have asthma, and 50 million have allergies, making them two of the most common chronic diseases in the U.S. Unfortunately, there are no "allergen-free" dogs, but some simple steps can help to make life with dogs easier if you have asthma and allergies:

Keep pets out of the bedroom and off of beds at all times to minimize dog dander accumulation.
Separately wash human and dog bedding weekly in 130-degree hot water to remove dust mites and dog dander.
Wipe pets after being outdoors to remove loose pollen from their coats.
Don't allow dogs to play with the kids' plush toys.
