Default Hairy Labrador Problem

I've got a Wagon, and we use it to ferry around our Golden Labrador.

Thing is being a Labrador, they moult like crazy in the summer and the back of the scooby now resembles a hamsters brothel.

Can anyone give any tips as to how to remove the hairs from the boot fabric and is there anything you can buy to make it easier.

Well we have one too, it just does not go in the car, if it does we have to put blankets down for it to lie on.

We always have the 2 yearly 'snow' scene on our carpets at home too.

Meguiars Hair and Lint Extractor - damn good at this type of work, and only £5.95ish on the website. I carry one in my pro kit at all times just in case!

I tried the hair extractor for the first time today.

I have tried vacuuming, brushing, rubbing with a damp cloth. all pretty useless.

The Hair & Lint extractor however is truly amazing. It just collects all the hairs like magic.

Thank you for making my boot a (relatively) hair free zone. Well until she gets into the car for the next walk anyway.
