How to Remove Dog Hair From Furniture

21 March 2023

We love a good cuddle on the sofa, but with shedding doggies, the result can be a bit hairy. If your dog’s gorgeous locks get all over your upholstered furniture, rug and carpets, the secret for quick and easy dog hair removal is actually a common household cleaning item - a squeegee scraper. It’s great for sofas, rugs, cars, even dog beds!

Simply move the end across the fabric to loosen the hair. Small, quick strokes are best and the fur will lift and collect together. Then grab all the fur, throw it away and you’re done, just in time for more cuddles.

Would you like your dog to enjoy extra walks, love and exercise? BorrowMyDoggy connects dog owners with local borrowers for walks, sitting and holiday care.
