Hello and welcome to e health forum.

From the description it seems that you have allergic rhinitis.

Your symptoms can be reduced by antihistamines like benadryl and clarityn (Loratidine).

You might need to reduce the exposure to the allergy causing agent (your dog), so as to prevent further symptoms.

You might consult a allergist for additional advice and proper treatment.
