Include pictures of the house mom and poodle in any display you have.
Keep the dog out of recruitment itself
If a PNM mentions having allergies, know how to assure her what you're doing to manage that.
Don't market the dog. Answer questions about the dog or talk about the picture with the dog in it, but don't "market" it.
