Instructions
Groom your dog once a week.
Weekly grooming will not only keep your dog's coat shiny and healthy, but it will also remove excess fur and already shed fur from getting all over your house.
Pet your dog with rubber gloves on your hands.
The hair will stick to your rubber gloves and remain there until immersed in a bucket or bowl of water. This way, your friend gets a good massage, and you remove excess fur.
Vacuum twice a week.
Although this may seem like a pain, vacuuming is the best way to remove all excess hair from your carpet and furniture. The more your vacuum, the less pet hair will linger in your home.
Vacuum your dog.
Yes, you really can (safely and pain-free) vacuum your dog to remove excess fur. Attach the hose attachment to your vacuum, and run the attachment along your dog to remove loose fur.
Get your dog groomed as needed.
Don't wait until your dog's fur is out of control before you get it groomed. Instead, get him groomed regularly to remove mats and excess fur that will otherwise end up in your home.
