I am not allergic to dogs whatsoever, but I have a very similar reaction to grass, and if the dogs get grass pollen on them and I touch the dogs I will hive up.

I don't know about shampoo, but benadryl sounds like your best bud right now. might want to keep an epi-pen handy if your reaction is really severe.

Might try to rub one arm against the fur and the other one with the fur and see what happens
