If you have a hypoallergenic dog, you may have less work to do around the house. But if you have doggies that shed frequently, there are some easy tips to keep your life “less busy”.
I read an article by Jen Gabbard on Puppy Leaks on just this topic.
She has experimented with quick ways to clean up AND clean up MORE of the hair your doggie leaves around the house.
Below this photo is an excerpt from the article.
