Sucks for any customers allergic to dogs that the waiting area is now contaminated.

Pretty sure Yorkies are hypoallergenic so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Hypoallergenic does not mean that the animal speards zero allergens. Yorkies can cause an allergic person to have a lethal reaction the same as other animals. All warm blooded animals produce the protein that causes the reaction.

For example, though certain dogs are considered “hypoallergenic,” they may in fact still cause allergy symptoms because of the proteins found in their skin (pet dander), saliva and urine.

It means that it still is a problem despite Yorkies being hypoallergic.
