Minnesotans Who Let Dogs Lick Their Face May Have Less Allergy Symptoms

I absolutely love dogs, however, I would never be OK with one licking my face. I don't care how cute the fur baby is. This could be why I have so many allergies.

A new study from the University of Arizona found that people who let dogs lick their face may experience less allergy symptoms than people who don't let their furry companions lick them.

The reasoning is that humans aren't exposed to as much good bacteria as we used to be, but dogs are. Their saliva has allergy fighting bacteria.

Now, if you're allergic to dogs this probably is a terrible idea. Would you ever try this to cure your allergy symptoms?
