Indirectly. The allergy-producing proteins from the dander, urine and saliva that trigger the allergic reactions are the same from dog to dog, the difference is in the amount produced or present. Small dogs are sometimes better just because they spread around less dander and dander-holding hair, and leave around smaller quantities of urine and saliva.

Are welsh springer spaniels bad for people with dog allergies?
I don't think springer spaniels are a good choice for allergy sufferers. They are large dogs that have a lot of hair and they also shed quite a bit of dander. My parents have an English springer spaniel and I get skin allergies sometimes when I pet the dog and she makes my eyes itchy ever once in a while. I own a small rat terrier and have slight allergies to this dog but not to the extent as the springer because she's about 1/5th the size. I think the main concern is if you know you have allergies to dogs it might not be worth the risk to purchase one, especially not a large dog that will give you more dander than a smaller dog. At first I was really sad that I couldn't buy a springer (due to allergies) but the smaller dog has been just as fun, energetic and loving as the springer is.
