I have a 4-year-old miniature schnauzer named Yuko who has been clipped since she was a puppy. My son recently developed an allergy to dog hair, and I heard that schnauzers are hypoallergenic only if they are stripped. Is it possible to start stripping Yuko now at this age, and what grooming methods can help reduce my son's allergy symptoms?

My 8-month-old dog, Clutch, has been throwing up and having diarrhea for a day. He was fed chicken and rice with teriyaki sauce by my mother-in-law, and shortly after, he started showing symptoms. Could this be related to his diet or a stomach bug affecting the household? What should I do?
