How to remove dog hair from a sofa without damaging the fabric

Dog hair is easiest to remove before the fabric gets damp. Start dry, work in short passes and finish with a reusable tool.

Use short strokes with a roller or fabric-safe brush. Work with the weave, not against it, to avoid pulling delicate upholstery.

Divide the sofa into cushions, arms and backrest. This gives a clearer before/after result and keeps the routine quick.

Brush your pet with the grooming glove before loose hair reaches the sofa. A small daily routine is better than a weekly rescue clean.
