Ah, dog hair. My evil nemisis! The first key is almost daily brushing and vacuuming. And two lint brushes

My elkhound has an undercoat so she's hanging on to her fur right now. The worst time of year is the summer when she blows her coat. This year we had a week of hot weather, then a cold snap, etc so she didn't blow it, just lost it over a couple of months. What a mess! I'd take any tips I can. My border collie doesn't have an undercoat and looses it pretty consistant all year long.

Long haired dogs are purdy but they're messy. I can't cook a thing without finding dog hair in the food. That's my precursor when serving guests a meal - the dog hair is free!
