Am I allergic to the dog?

Hello there! I have a somewhat interesting question. Today, our doggo had surgery, where they took out benign lumps and removed all of his teeth due to an infection that started spreading everywhere. Thus, there is a fair bit of blood involved. I've been having a distinct scratchy throat ever since he came back, and I've started to wonder: is it possible to have an allergy specifically to a dog's blood and not their skin and saliva. I do have a birch allergy, but it the scratchy feeling has been gone for 5 days until today. After I left the room, I started to feel better within 10 minutes. Although, I did take an antihistamine when I came in.
