Can it pick up long dog hair

Yes, the Dyson can pick up long dog hair. The trick is to periodically clean the roller in the vacuum head. I sew a lot and threads often accumulate on the floor. The Dyson vacuums them up too. But sometimes the very long pieces wrap around the roller rather than going into the dirt bin. This brand of vacuum is the best I have ever had, it has extremely good suction. You will love it.

Hi Pam - Yes - I have two goldens both with very long hair and it's picking it up great. The ONLY negative I have run into at all is that the tube that goes into the canister is about the size of a silver dollar (kind of smallish) and though it's super light weight and manueverable (which kind of outweighs that for me) we have had to unclog it a bit more than the normal one when I picked up a small piece of a dog toy or something like that which clogged the tube. We've had to unclog it twice in the last 2 weeks so that's unusual for me compared to my older Dyson (which I sold on Craiglist so I hope this works it way through!!) But function-wise as far as picking up hair it does an excellent job!! Hi Pam - Yes - I have two goldens both with very long hair and it's picking it up great.

I found that it picked up some of the hair. Two of my dogs have short hair and the other long, I was still able to get up more hair using my old vacuum.

Absolutely. I consider myself a very good house keeper but the first time I used my Dyson I was appalled what was in the tank. Nothing but Dyson for me ever.

It didn't work well on carpet but it worked very well on bare floors on long cat hair. Hope that answered your question.

I would guess yes. My little Rat Terrier has short fine pin hairs that embed in all kinds of fabric. The Dyson gets most of them. I would think longer hairs would be easier.

We don't have a pet in the house. Our son has 2 Labs and he has the Dyson model that advertises it's niche for dog hairs. I don't know the model no.

It doesn't lug up much but it brings the hair to the top of the carpet then you have to pick it up by hand. It doesn't have a big enough suction hole to suck up the dog hair honestly but like I said it does bring it up to the top of the carpet so you can pick it up. I then take mine completely apart after every use to make sure I do get the small amounts of dog hair out of the moving parts on it.

Most definately. I have birds and a Guinea pig and it very good at picking up small seeds and bedding. I also have dog's and it works great on dog hair!

Yes! It works fantastic with long haired dogs or dogs with a thick undercoat.

I can't answer that...have only used it a few times since I moved and the dogs here have very short hair. I think it works great! It's got very powerful suction!!

I would say, "no"....this is basically a tool for lifting the carpet pile. It doesn't pick up anything. I use it when I apply dry cleaning powder to rake it in. My son uses his to rake pet hair before vacuuming.

It works well... especially picking up dog hair. It's a little difficult to get corners and up against the wall, but works great getting dog hair together. Especially in my car and furniture .

Your asking for a lot of problems if you want a Roomba to go after "enormous" fluffy dog hair piles. The brush on the Roomba will only hold a certain amount of hair and then it's time to pop the brush out and take a wire brush to it for cleaning. I wouldn't suggest a Roomba to anyone who owns a dog that sheds a great deal expecially if it were a long haired dog. They would surely be disappointed in the amount of work it took keeping the brush working properly.

I have not tried that. If your dog is long haired I suspect that the dog hair would be caught in the rotating one. My dog is not fond of the vacuum so I would not even try with her. She does have wiry short hair and the rotating attachment works well.

Good if pet hair is in small spots. A hand held is not meant for large surface area. However, it is strong enough to pick up fur in alll small areas. I can't imagine using it for an entire sofa. Your wrist and hand just couldn't manage it. I use it for quick last minute touch ups all over the house: lint, fur, corners, drawers in the bathroom and the kitchen. Great for the seams of the seats in the car, car carpet.etc, etc.

I have really long and fine hair. It is breaking all of the time, and getting everywhere. This vacuum has no trouble picking up what I should be vacuuming up more often. I recommend this vacuum for even the longest hair cat.

Yes it does they are an awesome vacuum. It picks up lng hair also. Our dogs short hair, but we have family have big dogs long hair and they used there vacuum and then used the Dyson and picked up we couldn't believe how much more it pulled out of the carpet.

I have a long haired dog and did not realize, until after I bought the vac, that this particular Miele is not recommended for dog hair. It does pick up the hair, but but when I use the turbo head, I have to cut the hair out of the rotating brush. Also, the power cord is not very long and the turbo head is not very wide, so it is not good for large rooms. It does have very good suction!

Yes, I have two dogs that shed constantly and it picks up their hair very well.

dah! of course it picks up longer hairs. is a terrific machine. i own a high end residential cleaning service and this tool is essential. gets pet hair off furniture and fabric better than anything i have used in my 15yrs experience.

I use Scotch-Brite inside the house for picking up lint. I haven't tried it on pet hair but it should work.

No. This is an excellent tool for removing hair from fabric such as upholstery. Works great for that!!! I would not use it for the pet itself.
