How many types of anaphylactic shock?
Anaphylactic shock is typically categorized into two main types: IgE-mediated and non-IgE-mediated anaphylaxis. IgE-mediated anaphylaxis is the most common type, triggered by allergens such as foods, insect stings, or medications, leading to an immune response involving immunoglobulin E antibodies. Non-IgE-mediated anaphylaxis, while less common, can occur in response to certain medications or other factors, often involving different immune pathways. Both types can result in severe allergic reactions requiring immediate medical attention.

Is a Chiweenie an allergy free dog?
The Chiweenie, a cross between a Chihuahua and a Dachshund, is also known as a "Mexican Hotdog". Chihuahuas are low shedding and low dander dogs (no dog is allergy FREE). Dachshunds, however, tend to have more dander and lick their coats a lot which leaves their saliva on their coats. It is the dander (dandruff), and proteins in the saliva and urine that usually cause the allergic response, not the hair itself. Therefore, the Chiweenie would probably have the same coat and skin characteristics as each of those breeds. It may be that they would be easier for those with allergies to live with than dogs that shed a lot, but a purebred Dachshund is not recommended for those with allergies. However, even with purebred dogs, each individual dog and each individual person with allergies can vary, so you can not always test one dog in a breed and assume the same reactions will happen with other dogs in the same breed. Only a trial with a specific dog will tell you how that dog will do. Most reputable breeders will allow you time to be with the animal before you buy it to see how the allergies react . If they will not give you access for this type of trial, go to a different breeder.

Are border collies a good dog for someone with allergies?
Borrow one for a week and find out. People allergic to one kind of regular dog are not necessarily allergic to others. For example, I work with sable German Shepherd Dogs whose fathers are from the former Chez. Republic and moms are from Germany.
Many people allergic to American German Shepherds are not allergic to these. But, some are. Remember too that your system changes with age. What you were once allergic to, after time, you may no longer be, and things you weren't allergic to, may become a catalyst for reaction.
Also, their are breeds that many react less to, or not at all. Google 'em.
