If you have allergies, the Havanese might be a breed for you to consider. A member of the Bichon family, Havanese are touted as hypo-allergenic. Also their minimal shedding helps with allergen pollution.
Many people with allergies tolerate the Havanese very well. However, if a family member suffers from severe dog-related allergy, a test should be conducted where the afflicted family member can spend time with a Havanese to determine if this breed will or will not trigger an allergic reaction. This test should be done before the family acquires a Havanese as a pet.
