Getting dog's hair out of his fleece coats

I've unpacked the grehound's winter coats and despite washing them before they went away for the warmer weather, they are still covered in his hair. So much for the non shedding dog I was promised 🙄. What am I missing for cleaning them? I've put them (dry) in the dryer with a bouncy ball, gone over them with rubber gloves, left them on the line in a storm. Next step is giving him a blade 1 and removing the problem at the source.

Why bother? The coats will only get hary again!

Get some vamoosh dog hair dissolver stuff for the washing machine or a sticky lint roller might work?

Have you got one of these?

Because somehow it manages to multiply on the coat and both stay there taunting me and fall off everywhere.

Have never heard of this, shall investigate, thanks. Lint roller/fabric brush aren't very effective on fleece.

I used parcel tape wrapped round my hand, sticky side out.

Nothing like a spot of child labour!

Rubber gloves or Crocs. Rub over relevant surface. Be horrified.

The rubber gloves were satisfying but it seems to be never ending. Can you expand on the crocs?

Same principle - pull / push them across, the rubbery material pulls it free. I use it on stairs, rugs, mats and sofas!

Vamoosh is excellent, but the proof is in the lack of clumps of hair, so it is less satisfying than sticky tape.
