I have dogs & use Bounce dryer sheets because it also repels dog hair. Do anyone know if these also repel dog hair?

This item was suggested to me by my grand daughter in-law, she says it helps removing lint from clean clothes while drying, I have notice pet hair in my lint tray as well. It keeps the clothes in action instead of sticking to each other or clumping up. So far, I like them!

I gave the Kikkerland Hedgehog Dryer Balls to my daughter who has a dog. She was amazed that the dog hair ended up in the filter. She's sold on the dryer balls.

Jackie, I don't believe the Hedgehog balls will help you out with the dog hair; they work well with fluffing up the laundry, but they are just made of regular plastic, as far as I can tell.

Yes...but the shields also keep the hair damp. A few seconds of the dryer on each roller after the shield is removed helps.

I agree with the other answers. These do not collect dog hair. I should know; I have three of them. Even if I am drying their beds, collars, toys, etc., I find no fur on the balls afterwards.

Hello. Thanks for your question. Some pet hair will stick to the dryer balls, but they will not remove it completely. Thanks!

From my experience using these, there is no doubt static is eliminated. I noticed a difference when I used 6, but now I use 12 (I have a large dryer capacity) and have consistently not seen any static even with the thick blankets. I love these balls - wished I knew about them during those years I used the plastic ones until they started smelling funny.

I use the dyer sheet from the dryer. It helps a little. I also find using my vacuum helps remove the lint from the trap.

Hi Lisa, I've read that these dryer balls last forever! I've had mine for about a year now and I use them in my dryer almost daily. Doesn't look like they've worn out a bit.I'd highly recommend these great alternatives to chemical fabric softeners.

The instructions indicated dry or damp hair. I usually let mine dry as much as I can naturally before using the rollers. I have used them on damp hair after blow drying some. I highly recommend this product.

Like Phoenix Indigo posted, dryer lint is no longer recommended because of the toxins and because it does not respond well to moisture. I stuff mine with the fur I get from cat/dog brushings and with straw (which responds better to moisture than hay).

I also have big dogs, Goldens. In my opinion this dryer would be too strong forLittle Yorkies. You cannot adjust it low enough I don't think. I have friends with small dogs. & would be happy to ask them what they use. Can you use a hand held dryer on cool ? Some of them are not too loud.

Sorry - I cannot give you an accurate answer since I do not have a pet. What I can tell you is that after you do a couple loads of regular laundry, you will notice some lint collecting in the snare which might keep the dog hair from going down the drain. Wish I had a definite answer for you.

I do get some static on things like nylon but then conventional dryer sheets, etc... don't do much better. I really like these and after getting used to fishing for them in each load, I MUCH prefer them to anything else.

This is my second stand dryer and does not scare new puppies or jumpy dogs that I get. I just turn the dryer on a few minutes near them before I use the air stream on them. I have a high powered "Airforce" dryer but can only use on some dogs. Hope this helps, I love my stand dryer. my old dryer finally wore out after 15 years of use. R.I.P old dryer (Lol!)

I use my Woolzies all of the time. I'm not sure what an HE washer has to do with it, since the Woozie is used in the dryer. The package says to use 2-3 of the Woolzie balls at the same time, but I only use one at a time and it works great for us. Most of our clothing is natural fabrics like cotton, but some contain nylon. I'd highly recommend the Woolzies dryer balls. I only wish I'd learned about them earlier. What a savings now that we don't have to buy dryer sheets. If you want scent, you can add essential oils to the balls AFTER the clothes are dried and on a cooler setting for about 5-10 minutes.

We have goldendoodles, as well, who enjoy a good romp in the backyard after a hard rain. It's one of the best things we've found for drying off because you can really work the hair with your hands. Of course, the surface area is smaller, so you may find a towel works better if the dog is really, really wet (like playing out during the rain). It really depends on how long and thick the hair. It's easier for my children to use and do a better job, too. Hope this helps!

My daughter's Lab has shed all over it and it comes off pretty easily, but wouldn't say it repels dog hair.

I use all 3..they mix up the clothes better to dry them faster.. I love them. Don't have static cling not sure if it is the dryer Balls or not.
