Shedding really is the one negative about dogs. Fortunately, there are some easy products or tricks you can use to get rid of dog hair.
A lint roller or dog hair remover are great tools that can adhere to dog hair and pick up the pieces that are on the surface. If you don’t have those, a balloon or duct tape can work in a pinch.
For embedded dog hair, spray a mixture of fabric softener and water onto paper towels to loosen the hair from the fabric. Then, run wet rubber gloves, a squeegee, or paper towels to pick up the loosened hair. Run a handheld vacuum over the area once the fabric softener has dried.
To ward off future hair buildup, consider getting seat covers that can be easily washed in a machine or brush your dog before they get in the car to prevent shedding in the first place.
