dog hairs driving me mad

[LKLN]

great labrador but nightmare hairs,constant moulting, toddler gets all over her, have to clear up every time dog walks through kitchen, any tips on how to control.....desperate!

No solutions here I'm afraid, but can I ask what type of vacuum cleaner you have and whether it picks up hairs from carpets easily? Our 2 black labs produce a mountain of hair too.

brush her daily. I have a long haired cat, and hairs get everywhere. I have a dyson which is good at getting the hairs up

Cant you just hoover the dog daily, i have done this and also has a friend who does this daily

Tried hoovering the dog in desperation last week - they were NOT amused and made their 30kgs of feeling known! We have a dyson, but I was hoping for something that worked a bit better, ours just seems fairly rubbish.

I have the pet dyson which is great so I guess there is nothing more I can do, live with it sounds like best advice!

I've got a Henry hover, works well on my collies long fluffy clingy hair, also British made and cheaper than Dyson! That or shave them!

My sister's little girl sneezed and fell over onto the dog haired carpet at the same time........................instant goatie beard!!!

Daily grooming will go a long way to helping... but unfortunately labs are made to shed! Here's a link to show you how to groom effectively. It's no good just going at it with one of those bristle brushes... you won't get much out at all. A pink zoom groom is fab for labradors.

We've just bought a Roomba (robot vacuum cleaner) for less than our Dyson Animal cost, and it's great! I go out walking the dogs and come back to a hairless living room (for five minutes).

Have you tried a Wonderbroom?
Got mine in Woolworths.
I use it to scuff the hairs etc in to a heap then hoover the heap up.
Works for me

thx for all thi advice I am purchasing wonderbroom and vitapet today.....let you know how we get on........

There is a grooming tool called the 'furminator' (naff name!!) that claims if used once a week can reduce shredding by 80-90%. I am thinking of getting one for my GSD X and my 2 cats.

I have threatened ;to put our ;mutt in a plastic bag with just his paws and head sticking out so I sympathise and yes, the Dyson is cr*p at dog hair....(am kididng about the plastic bag...)

we have a black and white springer and a black and white catso this house can be pethair city. I have the dyson animal and it works well for me, when it gets bad I use the smaller turbo brush. I have also just bought a bissell heat cleaner that deals with hair and smell. I also get through lots of brown tape!

Keep dog hairs off the carpet with this !!!!!

Or how about this ??????

Oh FFS !!!!

LOL Macdog.
