Two labs. Cleaning around here with two dogs shedding fur at a good rate means it's never-ending.
Stop for a day or two and you can rake the fur up.
Sigh. Love my burglar alarms but had to vent a little about the whole shedding thing.
I have to do vacuuming?!?
Yikes.
Yankeegray has three. :lol:

My dogs staying the laundry room, they have a doggie door that leads to the fenced in backyard... Laundry room is enough to clean up, no way I would let them roam the house...

Wife has a Newfoundland. Dog hair is an hourly struggle around our house.

I've watched many honey extracting videos and you'd be shocked how often a labrador retriever gets into the production.
The density of fur compared to honey...
It's so light that it literally pops out the top if there's one hair in a bucket.its easy to spot.
It's rare but I've pulled a dog hair out before.
They float in the extreme.

Curious about the.half-life of a freshly cleaned carpet.
I swear...within 72 hours of shampooing a carpet a dog will shit, piss, or puke.
Never fails.

I have two Golden's, as you can imagine, we have enough hair to stuff a mattress. But we used to have three and being short the one, has helped some. But my boy old 'Max' is still missed by all, he was the only retriever I ever had that would dive down after a wounded diver. He did it every time he had a chance, and he always came up with the bird in mouth, making a great retrieve.

The first time he did it, it scared the, you know what out of me, I thought he was drowning. He was only a year old. I recall the surface of the water went flat, and I thought he was gone. He was out about 80yds, but then he popped up with that darn bird in mouth. The guys with me stood up with me and started hooting and hollering...was that not the finest retriever they have ever seen?

These dogs give us more than we should ever expect and only ask for love and food in return.

It's rough to be a dog lover when one just crapped on the couch. So you let them outside and he finds mud when it's 17 degrees.
In a perfect world my lawn would be so well maintained that mud don't exist but it's far from perfect here.
Sigh...
Clean it again.
At least they're civil about it.
Couch cover in wash. Hurry hurry.

Poor old milo isn't in the greatest health.
Gets all sorts of medicine.
I'll continue to clean up after him until he dies.
He fetched a lot of ducks.
