DYSON ANIMAL

I have 4 dogs......2 rottwielers, a (heavy shedding) siberian husky, and a pommeranian.

I have gone through 10 vaccums, until my vets assistant recommended the DYSON ANIMAL, it was expensive but worth EVERY penny, I have had this vaccum forever and never had a problem, nor needed service or repair. It has paid itself over multiple times!

Do it right the first time......get a DYSON ANIMAL, and you will never have to worry, and a plus is that you do not need to buy bags, and it has a lifetime warranty on filter and motor!

Worth every penny without a doubt!

Labs do shed quite a bit in general, but look at the source of the problem--make sure you're feeding your dog a quality food as this combined with regular brushing, bathing, and grooming, will minimize shedding. As far as vacuums I've heard that Dysons are very good and I believe Bissell has a model out now specifically marketed for pet hair.

For short-haired dogs, any good vacuum from Eureka, Hoover or Kenmore will do it that has a HEPA filter. I prefer bagged to bagless models -less messy. It doesn't need to be an expensive vac. I also use a Roomba for in-between cleanings. I got a deal on one on Woot.com.

For my long-haired goldens, it's a little more challenging because the hair tends to wrap around the rollers. But I love them, so that's the price I pay.

What works best to use to help dog hair from falling out?

Does your dog have a skin condition that makes his/her hair fall out? If so, for that you need to go to a vet. If you are talking about normal shedding, brushing can remove the excess hair. If the dog is infested with fleas, that can cause the hair to fall out and you need to get rid of the fleas.

Regular grooming, good quality dog food, Omega 3 oils added to the diet, and lots of fresh clean water.

What works best to use to help dog hair from falling out?

Dogs normally shed twice a year. In Spring, the heavy winter coat sheds out, and in Fall, the winter coat regrows and the short summer hairs fall out. The problem for dogs is electric lights. Now that we don't rely on the Sun for all our lights, we've thrown their cycle off and indoor dogs shed all year. Grooming as often as needed is the best way to remove dead hair year round.

You canot stop a dog's hair from falling out any more than you can your own! A dog only sheds twice yearly on the average with normal "fall-out" in-between. You also shed hair daily! Keep your pet brushed, combed and clean...make certain his/her diet is appropriate and ask your vet about it the next time you visit. Unless the dog has a medical problem, shedding is normal.

What works best to use to help dog hair from falling out?

Good dog food plays a huge role in their coat. I have a Lab who I am surprised is not bald from shedding but I switched him to Wellness Core which is 100% Grain free and all protein. High protein and good quality protein makes a huge difference. Plus the food is high in Omega 3 and 6 which is excellent for the coat. Since he has been on it it has made a huge difference in his shedding. I also vaccume him everyday and it helps, but the food and food quality makes the biggest difference.

What's the best way to remove dog hair from a black wool pea dress coat?

A lint roller, the kind that is made up of a long, wide strip of tape, similar to masking tape. Absolutely the best way, period, and available in just about every drug store and grocery store on the earth. In an emergency, duct tape or other sticky tape like packaging tape, etc. will work in a pinch.

How do I know this? I spent 20+ years in the Navy, and wore black wool clothing (especially my beloved and warm pea coat!) a great deal of the time (at least 6 months a year). I've always had pets; 2 Great Dane's, 1 Chihuahua, and at least 1 cat, up to 4 at times(!)

I've bought or tried *everything* you can possibly imagine to remove lint. Everything. You name it, I've bought it, tried it, and dumped it in the trash. The tape kind is the best, period.

If it's particularly bad, get it dry cleaned to start. After that, keep the tape roller handy!

What infection causes a dog to have bumps, throw up.also have lost a little dog hair?

You should go and ask your vet....

Seriously, we are not veterinarians here, just do the right thing and ask your vet....now! Don't make your dog suffer while you mess around on YA....jeeze!

What infection causes a dog to have bumps, throw up.also have lost a little dog hair?

Bumps and losing hair can be multiple things including mange, skin infections, allergies, fleas, etc. I would definitely take the dog in to the vet and have it checked out. I personally have no expereince with a dog having hair loss/bumps and throwing up and it being related to each other but throwing up can be caused by multiple things as well and is not good as dogs can dehydrate easily. Also if it is demodex mange (hereditary - non contagious) then it usually shows up when your pet is stressed or has a weakened immune system (such as sickness)

Oh, yeah, that. It's the Takemetothevet Infection.

Is there a scientific name for dog hair? If there is, what is it?

I'm pretty sure that most just refer to dog hair as "dog hair," but you might find it interesting that animal hair is divided into three categories:

* Guard hairs that form the outer coat of an animal and provide protection

* Fur or wool hairs that form the inner coat of an animal and provide insulation

* Tactile hairs (whiskers) that are found on the head of animals and provide sensory functions

I hear there's nothing to do for shedding. My vet had some stuff that's taken by mouth and he actually told me not to waste my money on it! My dog sheds terribly and all that I can tell you is I love my swiffer sweeper for the wood floors and I keep my vac handy which doesn't do much and I keep a big roll of clear packing tape with scissors nearby and that's what I use to pull most of the hair off the furniture. I know some people that shave their dogs bare but then I'd think you'd have little tiny hair all over which would be just as bad! Good luck, I hope your dog is worth the hair, ours is!
