I would've been pretty turned off from a house that had a dog. Not only because I am allergic, but because I'm just not a large dog person.

Again, this. In fact, having been mauled as a child by a "very sweet, loves kids" standard poodle, and having also been bitten by my brother's Doberman, I would probably do
anything I could to keep from getting a bid from that house!

My mother (now I) had a Bichon Frise, one of the top hypoallergenic dogs. At first, I had reactions, but they were mild. Now, I have none. I've learned to say "you're much less likely to have a reaction to him" when people ask about him.
small hijack: Every Pika chapter I knew had a Dalmation; is that just locally, or does every Pika/Pike chapter have one?
