Dog hair in sport loop

[ZhenyaF]

I have 2 dogs and their hair is stuck in my sport loop band. I’ve tried washing it in the washing machine, but it didn’t help much with the hair removal. Any suggestions?

Toothbrush?!

Toothbrush?!

Actually, that is an excellent idea.

I remember my mother using a toothbrush for the kind of washing (of small objects) that required close and focussed attention.

How about those sticky roller things, that you can get from Ikea?

They usually "pull off" most things like that.

Wash your dogs in the washing machine at least once a day.

great idea, although my washing machine at home isnt big enough, so probably will have to add a trip to the laundromat to our daily to do list

I have two golden retrievers. I don‘t think there’s anything I own that doesn’t have dog hair in or on it, despite daily grooming and my vacuuming. The sticky rollers help a lot, I buy them in bulk when Costco has them on sale. When a hair sometimes wriggles deep into the sport loops, I play surgeon and carefully tease it out with a toothpick or one of those dental picks, or in extreme cases, my needle-nosed tweezers (being very careful not to pull on a loop).

Tweezers helped getting the ones slightly sticking out, some are imbedded in the fibers

Did it help?

the roller helped a bit, I then did the tweezers, but there are still a bunch of small hairs. Still havent tried the toothbrush
