recommendations

Brush your dog frequently

This recommendation is the key to not having to do a very deep cleaning of your bed, chair or clothes when they already have your dog’s hair.  And it is neither more nor less than brushing, something that is also very pleasant for canines.

There is a wide variety of veterinary products such as brushes, combs, brushing gloves, rollers and others that are used to hair your dogs. And not only will it make   the job easier, but your dog will have a session of beauty and connection with you every time you brush him. 

vacuum the whole house

Although sweeping is often more within our reach, the reality is that if you have a floor made of ceramic, wood or any material or if you have a carpet, the most practical thing is always to   vacuum it.

Between blankets, bedspreads and armchairs, it is convenient to use the vacuum cleaner   mainly because it covers much more than sweeping, it prevents dust particles or your dog’s small hairs from remaining in the air   and also because you can do it on surfaces that you do not sweep with the broom.

Anti-hair fabrics

Since dog hair is common in homes, we have designed repellent fabrics for hair and other dirt particles that   may be convenient to use on the surfaces where your dog lives.

These fabrics, in addition to not easily sticking to your dog’s hair, are difficult to stain and    also have the positive quality of being able to be cleaned with a damp cloth,   which makes cleaning your dog’s hair at home much easier.
