Interestingly, shortly after Snowball’s introduction into the Armstrong household, Kennedy develops skin allergies. Typically, Maltese and other hypoallergenic breeds are less likely to cause allergies in humans. Despite her family doctor’s diagnosis that Kennedy is allergic to Snowball (no skin or blood testing was performed on camera), Kennedy’s redness and itching could also be attributed to Snowball’s coat collecting environmental allergens or external parasites, such as fleas.

Tearfully, Taylor tells us they may have to give Snowball up as an alternative to Kennedy enduring a series of allergy shots. Frequent and consistent grooming patterns, along with prevention of parasite infestation, can help reduce accumulation of potential allergy inducers.

I am happy the Armstrong family has kept their beloved puppy for now, as Snowball is seen in a subsequent episode being placed on a potty pad and hanging out with Russell and Kennedy while Taylor heads off to New York City.Taylor's Friend offers to Take in Snowball to see how things go if Snowball will be able to come home or not...But Kennedy has her visitation with him for now!!


Update!!! We are so happy, Snowball is living with Taylor's friend and he has a girlfriend, great home, and all is well. We will miss you snowball. xoxox
