One of the parasitic infections from the dog is Sarcoptic mange. The infection may sometimes be mistaken for allergy.
Animal scabies (Sarcoptic mange) not infrequently attacks human beings, especially the owners of affected lap dogs or cats, and grooms attending mangy horses. There is no incubation period, the disease occurring immediately the parasite is transferred to the human skin. The burrows characteristic of human scabies are not found, the eruption being a small red popular rash which affects the arms or other parts which have been in contact with the infected animal. Sometimes the eruption is very profuse and widespread. The best place to find the acarus (a genus of arthropods, including mites) is the point of elbow. When the source of infection is detected and cut off the disease tend to die out of itself, but treatment with benzyl benzoate or gamma benzene hexachloride should always be instituted.

ask a friend to take the dog for a few days and if symptoms stop such as all mentioned above then it's probably the dog. I have just been to the doctor about a dog allergy myself and they said they don't test for it, it is just a process of elimination.

like if your pet has allergy's and your pets eyes are red you have to go to the vet quick before something will happen.
