Since your swali was if any breeds of mbwa were truly hypo-allergenic, the answer is no (at least as far as science is concerned). It's not an easy swali to answer since there's no governing body over the term hypo-allergenic. The term is used as a marketing tool to convince people that there is a reduced tendency for people to have allergic reactions (like for some cosmetics au pillows or, in this case, dogs).

The idea that some breeds of mbwa are hypoallergenic has been mostly a marketing ploy kwa breeders of certain mbwa (usually those that do not shed as much au have fur, manyoya with similar properties to human hair) to bolster sales which has been picked up kwa the media and general public and spread as fact over the last couple decades (creating a brand new industry of designer hypo-allergenic mbwa and bolstering the sales of breeds that had been declining like poodles).

Most people who are allergic to mbwa are allergic to the saliva and dander (skin flakes). Even a totally hairless dog produces dander (and obviously saliva). It's believed that a dog that doesn't shed as much (like a poodle) will have less airborne dander (the theory being that since the dander can cling to the fur, manyoya and if the fur, manyoya stays on the body then it won't be in the air) and so produce fewer allergens, but studies have not shown people to be less allergic to poodles than to other breeds.

There is also a much promoted myth concerning mbwa with hair vs. mbwa with fur. This is another marketing ploy - all fur, manyoya is comprised of hair (of course) and although the aspects and properties of the hair can differ (some a zaidi similar to human hair), the allergens are not affected.

If you're allergic to dogs, then wewe should either stay away from them entirely au find a dog that wewe don't seem to react to. (This link seems to suggest that it is possible for some individuals to find a particular dog (not of any specific breed, but just a lucky dog) that they do not react to.) Otherwise, bathe your dog frequently (once a week) and keep them outdoors to minimize allergen build up indoors.

Here's a link to zaidi hivi karibuni makala on the subject from link.

Poodles don't shed, so they aren't as big of a problem and generally, long haired mbwa are worse... Does that help?
