22 Best Hypoallergenic Dog Breeds

These pups are low maintenance in the shedding department. If you're craving a cuddle with an adorable and furry friend but have allergies to pet dander, then a hypoallergenic dog might just be the answer to all your needs. Dogs that are hypoallergenic can work great for people with allergies because they don’t shed as much as other breeds do. That means there's not as much dander coming off their coats and sticking to your upholstery. While no dog is truly hypoallergenic, there's a threshold at which people with allergies tend to react to the dander (which is made up of dead skin cells) or saliva that causes sufferers to feel itchy, sneezy or short of breath. As an added bonus, dogs that shed less can help cut down on cleaning up all of that stubborn hair around the house. The experts at the American Kennel Club have pinpointed a whole array of dogs with lots of love to give, with less shedded fur to collect. From small dogs (like Bichons and Yorkies) to medium-sized pooches (like Poodles and Portuguese Water Dogs) to larger pups (consider the Giant Schnauzer), you’ll find your new best friend among these hypoallergenic dogs that don’t shed, and also happen to make great family pets. And when you welcome your pup to its new fur-ever home, check out these fun dog toys to help show them just how much they're loved.

Life lessons you can learn from introverts

Introverts are often told that they need to be more extroverted, that their natural way of being is not conducive to a successful or a fulfilling life—just look at the countless guides trying to "help." But the implication there is that being introverted is a problem that needs to be solved, which can sometimes be all too convincing in a world that seems to reward self-promotion over quiet reflection. The real difference between introverts and extroverts relates mostly to how they recharge. The people who gain energy from being alone happen to have a lot of really valuable and underappreciated traits which go a long way in relationships, work, and the general quality of one's life.

Nancy Meyers movies ranked from worst to best

Nancy Meyers' name is brought up a lot online and across social media when people talk about exquisite interior designs, but this iconic filmmaker's talents extend far beyond her solid taste in design. As a writer, director and producer, Meyers has become a household name in an industry that is primarily dominated by men. Many of Meyers' films, which tend to fall into the romantic comedy genre, have not only had commercial success, but are among the films audiences revisit again and again. Prior to directing and producing, however, Meyers did work on a few films that aren't on many people's watchlists. Here's an overview of her most notable works, counting down to the very best.

It's Official: We Found the 40 Prettiest Flowers in the World

How many of these breathtaking beauties do you recognize? As is often the case with beautiful things, we've given flowers meaning—so much so that even looking at one can make you feel more alive. A plain red rose has become a romantic expression of love and sunny daffodils represent the rebirth of the planet every spring. Of course, because they're plants, we also use them in more practical ways: Silky flower petals have been crushed and distilled into essential oils and perfumes for centuries, and we've figured out how to eat some of them and make tea with select leaves, stalks, and blooms. But to put it simply, the joy of admiring a gorgeous, colorful flower is unmatched. (Though we should note that some are best admired from afar because of toxicity.) Not to mention, no two flowers are exactly the same. Some rise out of the water to bloom while others sprout vines that go where they want…permanently decorating the side of your house. Even low bushes can produce incredible blossoms, like giant peonies, and if you've ever sat under a cherry blossom tree with a cool breeze blowing tiny petals around you, you know how magnificent flowering trees can be. A person who loves flowers is called an "anthophile," and if this describes you, you'll probably recognize most—if not all—of the flowers below. Rare or common, bright or soft, simple or complex, these beautiful flowers from around the world are certainly sights to behold.

Do you know the signs of an identity crisis?

The proverbial "identity crisis" is something we know well in pop culture, but when it comes to ourselves, it can be harder to pin down. Identity itself is a complex concept because it is intrinsically subjective, but most psychologists agree that our identities encompass memories, experiences, relationships, and values, and involve how all of these things fit in our external circumstances. In combination, these components help create our sense of self and define how we move through the world. So, what happens when that personal blueprint is suddenly blurry or torn into pieces? We begin to question ourselves and act out. And this can happen with trauma, career changes, divorce, retirement, and more. But all hope isn’t lost. Click through to learn all about the causes, signs, and ways to work through an identity crisis.
