[nagdu] Dealing with dog hair

[melissa R green]

A pet groomer advised me to use a zoom groom with the other grooming tools.
I haven't figured a good way to make sure that it doesn't get on my clothes.


Blessings,

I brush Chase every day.  I use a furminator on him once a week.  He still
sheds.

So we sweep the tile and vacuum the rugs. He's a black Lab and I don't
notice his hair on our clothing.  But it's sure on the floor a lot.

Good luck.

Craig and Chase
