Dog hair removal from clothes.

Does anyone have a brilliant way of removing dog hair from clothes.
I've just unloaded the washing machine and while folding the clothes ready to put on the drying maiden realised how many are coated in dog hair, some much worse than others. I've got a lovely new fleece jacket but cannot wear it now as its absolutely covered
Can anyone recommend a way of removing dog hair. I did buy one of those sticky roller things from Wilko but its pretty useless.

Don't let the dog wear your clothes?

Put the clothes in a tumble drier,that will remove the dog hairs,that's if you have one,..also try sellotape,I use that on the floor,as my JR,sheds hair all the time,I also have to hoover my bed,good luck.

Re: Dog hair removal from clothes.

Like others have said, sellotape works, though tiresome for lots of clothes.

Luckily my lot are all a non-shedding breed, but when I clip them I use one of these on my trousers afterwards and find it very good.

Also when I am ironing, if I have any bits of fuzz on my trousers, I use this while the garment is laid flat on the ironing board. Much easier that way, than when you are just holding it, or wearing it.

I use this for removing fluff stuff - picks up more and more robust than sellotape - wraps around the hand nicely too

Re: Dog hair removal from clothes.

Thank you for the suggestions. I will order the brush from Amazon and also the wide brown parcel tape. Its driving me mad this. Diego is long haired but even short haired Peaches is dropping hair. I bought four cushion covers to match the lounge walls colour and all four are plastered. Its as if certain materials are like a magnet to attract hair.

Re: Dog hair removal from clothes.

MC, just had another thought too.

Are you sure you have the correct tools for grooming each different coat type?
If maybe you are not getting enough dead hair out, that could account for so much hair on everything.

There are many brushes, combs, de-tanglers, matt breakers, furminators, slickers etc for all the different coat types.

Here are a few from Pets at Home, but there are many more places to buy too.

Thank you Mups. I think I will take the dogs with me to Pets at Home for advice as my daughter has only left me a fine wire brush which doesn't appear to get very much hair out at all.
