Ideas to remove pet hair
We all love our dogs and cats; but, it is the fur, we are not so crazy about. Although there is a simple solution to anything these days, so I am sure one of these ideas will suit your family. We have all suffered from this problem especially when going out at night and wearing that little black number, or the hubby is decked out in his penguin suit, it could not be more obvious.
#1 Vacuum cleaner
I am not kidding you, vacuum the dog before he drops the fur on the chairs or carpets. Ours was not so sure of the noise at first; although he loves, it now because he is getting his back massaged. Do it without the vacuum turned on at first to get him used to it, use the small flat head. Take care not to put too much pressure on the animal in the process.
Use the vacuum with the rotating head for carpets or chairs; this removes the pet fur, although some vacuums do not come with this attachment.
#2 Velcro Hair curlers
Great for smaller areas, either the plastic or wire, curler both work. Remove the hairs after each run over the chair or you will put them back again.
#3 Rubber gloves
The ones with the little knobs on them work the best. Rub the glove over the chair or carpet and the fur will collect into a ball. Using gloves on nylon carpets could tend to warm your hand with the friction. Like with carpet burns, need I say more?
#4 Squeegee Mop or sponge
Use a slightly dampened squeegee; rub this across the affected area. Place a small container beside you to place the unwanted hair in. You do not want it back on the floor.
#5 Lint removers
These are great for the smaller areas. Some come with the sticky roller that you turn as used. Another type is the clothes brush type that you remove lint one-way, then, turn the head around and the lint comes off. These are quite effective.
#6 any type of sticky tape
Use masking or painters tape wrapped around a piece of wood or even around your hand to gather the fur.
#7 Sprinkle baking soda
Sprinkle baking soda around your carpets. This tends to loosen the fur, and deodorizes the carpet at the same time, removing odors.
I am sure one of these methods will help you in your efforts to remove your little darling's fur.

Very true, but poodles do not have the same disposition as.....what shall I say ...my dog. haha. I just love him so much. thanks Lizzie
I love the labradoodles - but if I got one then my partner would insist on a cat and then it would be a lot more hassel traveling!
I don't have dogs but I do have a pet cat.This is going to help me a lot. Goodness!I am learning a lot of things from you.Juuuuuuust great!Thumps up!
Great Hub. I'll have to send my dog behaviorist friend, Rena Murray, here, because she's always looking for new solutions to help her clients. (She does the "red zone" dog behavior modification as well as solving fearful dog and more ubiquitous dog problems, but hey, all dog owners have these practical needs, too!) Loved the Pet Vac Buddy (AsSeenOnTV), but can't find it now.
Thanks once again. Havent seen that ad yet.
Great ideas Eileen! My Pug loves to play with the vaccum cleaner so he will probably love that idea! He also loves the massage! LOL

Bonnie, some dog love it while other are scared of the noise. thanks for stopping by
Woow what a great tutorial... I never thought using rubber gloves to do it would work...
joaojeronimo, Its amazing what you can learn here on hub pages. Thanks for stopping by.
This has helped me a lot thanks. I have a cat and its a nightmare i remeber my house when it was hair free. I tried this and it worked wonders thanks again.

Good one - I miss my dog but not his hairs! The vacuuming the dog works really well - the lab loved it - he'd lie in front of the vacuum until you did him 1st - just don't get his ears caught. The other option is to get a wool dog like a poodle!
