Are Great Dane dogs hypoallergenic breeds?

My son has asthma, and I'm looking for a dog that will not irritate his lungs with shedding and dander. Will a Great Dane be a good choice?

Great Dane's are not hypoallergenic dogs. Your best bet is a dog like a poodle, Irish Water Spaniel, or a mix of these breeds.

A great Dane is not a hypoallergenic dog. Airedale Terrier ,Standard Poodle, Tibetan Terrier,Maltese are just a view breeds that you may want to consider.
