How do you cope with dog's malting hair when they're inside?

i guess older dogs shed more hair because when i sweep every morning i always get handful of hairs. i have an 8 years old dog which has been with me for its good i dont have a carpet. frequent sweeping and cleaning the furnitures will get rid of it. in clothes, i am not sure how to handle. i brush my clothes with my hand. some remain but others are loosened. then i just pick on those that i see while am wearing the shirt, etc. i look funny sometimes. ann

Dogs need to be bushed at least once a week. I brush my dogs every other day for an about 5 minutes or so. The best way to clean is to vacuum or have special rubber brush. see link: http://www.made-in-china.com/image/2f0j00IvZQdMHChfgUM/Pet-Hair-Removal-Rubber-Brush.jpg

Hi there! I have shih-tzus and boy sometimes their hair are all over my clothes, the sofa and yes the carpet and even on my bed. But regular vacuuming can take it all off the carpet and the sofa. I also trained my pets not to sit much on the sofa and lying on the carpet but we can't really prevent them from doing that. About the hair on my clothes, I use masking tapes or whatever kind of tape. Just put a strip on the clothes so the hair will come right off when you pull the tape. I have lots of masking tapes hehe. I also often groom my pets so as to prevent the hair from shedding. I brush their hair everyday and give them a regular trim every other month. Hope that helps. Ciao!

I have 3 dogs at home and all of them shed. To keep up with the shedding, I do brush them a lot and at home, I make sure to vacumm everyday, that way i won't bees to fury every where. As for the clothes, you either used a dryer or a sticky roller to get all the pet hair out.

I suffer from this terribly with a 105-lb. dog that has Addison's disease and is on steroids every day and sheds like crazy. Since your problem is not due to you actually having a pet maybe there is a very simple solution. Wear a pair of shorts and a shirt that you don't mind getting puppy on. At least you will only have one outfit to worry about. Then put a towel over your seat in your car and sit on that on the way home before you get changed. It keeps the hair off of your car seat. Put the clothes in a plastic bag as soon as you get home until you wash them to keep from spreading the hair to your other clothing in the laundry area, etc. As for the carpet, my husband gets on his hands and knees practically every other day. He starts in one corner and works himself out of the room running his hand over the carpet while pressing down and scooping. He seems to get a small puppy worth of hair each time he does it. Then we vacuum. It gets the hair off the top of the carpet and then the vacuum mainly works on what is deeper. I hope this helps! I try to find new ways to de-pupitize my house every day. I am afraid it is a battle I may never win, but I wouldn't trade him for the world.
