Are you supposed to swallow the stuff in an inhaler?

You should inhale deeply as you pump the inhaler. The medicine in the inhaler will travel to your lungs as you breathe in. Try to hold your breath for 7 seconds after you inhale, to give the medicine a chance to work on your lungs before you breath out the air that was in your lungs.

You might taste the bitter medicine a little bit; if you taste a lot it means you aimed the inhaler at your tongue and should probably try again so that the medicine can go toward your throat and down to your lungs.

Are Italian Greyhounds good dogs to have if your child has asthma and allergies?

I have asthma and ive got a grayhound called sparcky!

It's not the fur, but the pet dander that causes the reaction to asthma and allergies sufferes. Italian Greyhounds are hyper and great runners, so they aren't the best pet for children. On the Canadian Shopping Channel there is an excellent brush with a Hepa Filter that you can constantly groom your dog with and it I've heard it works. There is also a special brush where the small vacuum is put into another room (so the pet is not frightened) and you run the brush down the dog (or cat) and it get's the dander and any loose fur out. It's quite the thing. Vacuuming, not allowing pets onto furniture or in bed with you is a must. It's a great investment to choose a good Hepa Filter for your home and try to keep the air as pure as possible.

Here are some breeds that you may try (be sure to tell the breeder your child has asthma and this is a test run and if it doesn't work you want to bring the pup back.)

Bichon Frise' are a funny, loving and sweet dog. They have thick curly hair and I own one and have Tootsie shaved like a sheep. She looks so cute. She doesn't shed and my brother who has allergies is just fine around her.

Miniature Schnauzers are another great dog, with short silky hair and they do not shed. They are mild-mannered and fairly good with children.

American Hairless Terrier

Kerry Blue

Go to: Google.com

Then ask Google this: Information on the Bichon Frise'.

Keep asking the question, but just change the dog breed.

I know this must be difficult for your son wanting a pup so badly, but give it a shot and if he can't tolerate the dog being in the home then take the pup back and I wouldn't try the other breeds because it's too heart-breaking for not only the family, but the pup.

If you can't give affection to the pup or think by keeping it outdoors or in a basement for part of the time, please don't get any of the above dogs. They are family dogs and love to be with family.

Good luck Marcy

Try Chinese Crested Hairless Variety. The hairless name is a misnomer as they have a little tuft of fur on their head, around anklets, tip of tail plume. But its such a small amount compared to fully coated dogs. They have awesome sweet personalities. I con-cur with Marcy, Italian Greyhounds are not a good breed for children. They have delicate bones that cannot stand up to the rough-housing of children.

Best wishes, Amy

I have both asthma and allergies myself and what the problem is, is the pet DANDER not the FUR. If you are looking for a great hypoallergenic dog, I highly recommend a Schnauzer or a poodle. For me, I'm allergic to cats so I just take medicine but it seems as though I'm not allergic to my cat anymore. Maybe it's just something your kid will outgrow.

Is your child old enough to walk someone else's dog? We can't have a dog but my daughters walk a neighbour's dog after school. They get the affection & exercise without worrying about fur. It's doing them a power of good.
