🔎 Important Correction (1/31/23):

In this episode, I used the colloquial meaning of hypoallergenic that many prospective Doodle parents assume means "allergen-free." However, this is inaccurate—no dog is truly allergen-free.

Scientifically, hypoallergenic means "less likely to cause allergies," which Poodles and some Doodle mixes do fit, but the general public often misinterprets this term.
