I'm thinking this might work for catching pet hair as well? My dog sheds a lot and I frequently wash his bedding - full of hair. Any input?

Sorry - I cannot give you an accurate answer since I do not have a pet. What I can tell you is that after you do a couple loads of regular laundry, you will notice some lint collecting in the snare which might keep the dog hair from going down the drain. Wish I had a definite answer for you.

It should work for this, I have cats and I do see cat hair in my lint trap.

Probably. I don't have a pet of any kind so I can't speak from experience. However those cheap sink strainers catch hair so I'm guessing this would work as well; works well enough for lint...that I know for sure.

These lint traps worked as well as other more expensive traps I've used. I have cats, and they seem to capture cat hair and prevent it from clogging the drain. Be sure you check them frequently--they capture a good amount of lint/hair and fill up quickly when washing things like pet bedding. Also, be sure you tighten the zip ties very well so the mesh filter doesn't come off the hose end. I bought extra zip ties at the hardware store so I could double fasten the filters.

It does not get 100% of lint, but a lot of it gets caught. Pet hair should be caught as well. Especially if it is long hair and if there is already some lint in the snare.

I have a cat and she has a lot of hair. You find her hair on the furniture, the beds, the floor...all over the house. This has worked great for picking up her hair. The only thing is that the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser´s charge doesn´t last long. You have to charge it every 15 minutes. I am very happy with it.

I personally don't have shag carpets, so take this for what its worth--I think it might be a little too rough. You have to push with a little force to pull up the pet hair, so I think that same force would dig it into your carpet fibers and pull up or loosen pieces of the shag. This is just my guess. I don't have shag carpeting, so I love this thing.

sorry, we don't have any animals at our cottage. however, it picked up sand, crumbs, bugs etc very well.i suspect it would pick up dog & cat hair, too.

I don't think it would be effective. The suction is pretty weak as it only picks up loose hairs from non-fabric surfaces. It's good for quick pet hair picks up when you're expecting company, etc.

I have two dogs, one a big shedder and the other not. It does a GREAT job picking up my Dogs shedding fur. The only thing is it shd be cleaned after each use, which takes a minute. Its very user friendly.

I have pugs, and it works great for the shedding. Not quite sure how long your dogs hair is, but I got the short for the pugs

I would imagine it would. I have been picking up long hair cat hair but it is picking up hair that I couldn't even see with the naked eye. It really works better then I expected.

I have only used it to groom my dog while he's been dry. My dog has short hair and it has worked well to get his shedding fur. You brush in circles to loosen the shedding fur and then brush from head to tail to clump it up.

Probably so. I have 4 dogs and a shedding cat and it seems to do a good job. Not sure how it does on carpets, however.

It does not work well on carpet, only hardwood floors. We don't have a pet but I would guess that it would not pick up pet hair on carpet.

This item is perfect for my husband's hair. I use it because it thins and layers the hair and keeps it very manageable. I wouldn't hesitate to try it on a small unnoticed section to see if it does what you want. I personally believe it would work because of its function. I use it on my dog who sheds miserably.

Dog hair is a problem for us, too. I was actually concerned that the sheep balls would collect too much dog hair. They collect some but not much. I did use a piece of tape to remove it from them. I tend to use a sticky lint roller or pieces of packing tape to remove the dog fur from things. Tedious but nothing else seems to work. Maybe I will try some dryer sheets for that...thanks! Might try the dryer sheets plus the sheep balls at the same time.

Dear Kevin- Please don't think you are doing something wrong. We wish it weren't so but there are certain conditions where the BFF does not work as well as others. For instance, sometimes pet hair weaves itself into rugs and fabrics and it becomes very hard to pluck back out, and some pet hair is so short and downy that it is really hard to pick up. One of our test doggies is a Boxer with little eyelash size fur, and the BFF works well cleaning his microfiber bed and favorite spot on the couch, but we have heard from the owner of a French Bulldog that she had more difficulty getting up all of the tiny furs in her car's carpeting. Most important to us at Lilly Brush is that you are happy with your purchase, and we would like to refund you fully if you are not. Please give us a call (303-757-4184) or email us (sales@LillyBrush.com) and let us know what we can do to help. You are very important to us! Many thanks! Lilly Brush Co., LLC

currently have no pets. due to weak suction I doubt it would work very well to get lots of pet hair picked up.

Hello,My dog has a great deal of hair and when I use this tool it seems to be removing what is usually on all my carpets. I have not noticed at all that it seems to be cutting the hair in any way. I hope this helps.
