do they remove dog hair from clothes like traditional dryer sheets?

I have dogs and cats and don't see hair on my clothes so yes they must be working.

When I used regular dryer sheets they didn't remove cat hair so I haven't noticed that dryer balls do either! My cat's hair always ends up on the dryer filter even if I don't use anything in the dryer!

Dog hair is a problem for us, too. I was actually concerned that the sheep balls would collect too much dog hair. They collect some but not much. I did use a piece of tape to remove it from them. I tend to use a sticky lint roller or pieces of packing tape to remove the dog fur from things. Tedious but nothing else seems to work. Maybe I will try some dryer sheets for that...thanks! Might try the dryer sheets plus the sheep balls at the same time.

I think what actually removes the pet hair is the dryer itself, not the sheets. If you look at all the stuff you clean off your lint filter, you can see the hair in there too. So the wool balls will do just as good a job as the dryer sheets did, meaning your dryer itself will continue to draw the lint and hair into the lint catcher. I think you'll be pleased! (I have a cat, not a dog, but they get the job done just fine.)

Yes and dryer too. My cats love it. It cat fit 2 cats (snug) but good for loving buddies.

No, they are a nice perma-press fabric that washes and dries well in a clothes dryer. I am pleased with the purchase and wish I had found them earlier.

I leave the dryer balls in the dryer all the time. Put wet clothes in with them, start dryer. The dryer balls will be dry when the clothes are.

Yes, I have put mine in the washing machine with no problem, but don't use a dryer.

It can be removed. It's a little tricky the first time. I recommend using the manual instructions the first time. After that it's easy. I machine wash mine on gentle or hand wash even though the manual says not to machine wash. The fabric is still in great condition and I didn't have a shrinking problem even with using the dryer.

Yes it does. We have a Pomeranian dog and it gets his hair off of our clothes as well as our furniture. Hope this is helpful.

this dryer is great for long or short hair dogs. It has a lot of power but is quieter then most dryers so it does not frighten the dogs. Use a conditioner after shampooing and brush out either with fingers or brush to remove or avoid matting.

Yes, I dry them in the dryer on permanent press or delicate. You have to remove them promptly when done as they will wrinkle. That said I have left them in the dryer and after hanging them up they were fine.

Yes. They are - just don't use dryer sheets. Not sure why, but that is what Tommie Copper says specifically.

Yes, of course you can. Just remove the inner cushion with filling, and the plastic bow. Then wash the cover at very low temperatures using the delicate cycle of your washing machine and tumble dry low. My whippets want their beds cleaned regularly (at least every 4 weeks), so dogs are not that much different from us humans ;>)

Yes just take out the metal hooks and toss them in the washer and dryer they come out perfect

Yes. There is a twist off vent cap on the dryer that can be cleaned of lint. Hands down, the best hair dryer I have ever had.

I don't know about the combo with dryer sheets as my whole point in getting the wool balls was to get rid of the dryer sheets so I have not used them together. Dryer sheets use toxic chemicals, or so I have heard. Yet, I also have not had that much of a static issue. My solution to that is to take the garment and give it a good cracking brisk shake. That usually gets rid of some of the static. Again, it is not like my clothes have had a lot of static since I made the switch which was many dryer loads ago. Get rid of those dryer sheets!

Clothes come out just slightly damp. I usually hang shirts on a hanger or use a portable dryer stand. Clothing does not drip, and items are ready to wear in a few hours. No, the spin dryer does not remove pet hair or lint, only water.

No - they are mostly dry when they are removed from the washer - there is no need for it

No. You just toss the entire bed into the washer. Use cold water and cool setting on dryer. I Have two beds. My dog loves it.
