It could be just a natural reaction to the dander that comes off with grooming, even outside. Or some irritant in the air. I don't have any allergies to pets, either, but I sometimes get sneezing fits, and sometimes I never find the cause though I am pretty sure it isn't my big triggers. Maybe just dust or pollen or someone burning something and the irritant hit you. I wouldn't worry, or maybe get a second test a little bit later. They do sometimes come back negative even if you are positive.

Awwwww thanks for reply ankyil it probably is from trimming my dog as I was ok before I trimmed him.

Np. I honestly wouldn't worry too much about sneezing unless it is paired with anything else, though. Sometimes dust just gets in the nose.

Dust is everywhere ^_^ Are you noticing any other symptoms? Feeling worse? Can't breath? Itchy eyes? I think those are some things to add on. If that, then you might want to take the appropriate meds. Something like sneezing is really hard to pinpoint because it could literally be anything.

It could of been something that your dog brushed against and got into it's coat that caused it.
