I have a dog who sheds a ton, a great pyrenees, how quickly does the dirt canister fill and how often are you dumping it?

This brand/model vacuum died on me twice... I never got to emptying it. It's a piece of junk...my experience. Sorry I can't help.

I have 2 shelties and as you know they are hairy as well. vaccuum every other day and will fill w/in a couple of times.still LOVE the product! cant believe how well it works for the price!

It's a good size canister, so I can vaccum my entire apartment without dumping it in between. As with any new age canister vacuum, you should dump it every time you finish vacuuming. With a great pyrenees, you should be more concerned with how often you may need to clean the vacuum's filters.

I have a Golden Retriever who sheds a lot. I only use the Eureka Suction Seal cleaner on a very small carpeted area as the rest of my house has ceramic tile. The canister fills up very quickly and the brushes of the machine quickly fill up with hair and must be cleaned out or you'll risk burning it up. I was not at all pleased with this machine and cannot recommend it.

While it has great suction, emptying the canister is a pain and it does fill fast. I would go with a Dyson. Best vacuum I ever had! I have a Shepard and a Husky!

It seems to me that it would but it could fill faster than you'd hope depending on the size of the dog and his or her output as well depending on the number of dogs. A dog may also knock the container over if s/he is the type to try and eat the waste. What this has done for me is to scoop whenever I pass the pan and that has controlled the odor even more than closing off the cat litter waste in a bag. I do appreciate not smelling the old waste when I add current waste because I close the lid and pull out the slide and it drops below. I use an enamel scooper too which doesn't hold the odor. Be forewarned that the bag can be heavy when it is full and you do have to handle the top portion when you cut and tie off a new knot which may use more bag than you should. You'll want to clean the slider too. It's a bit top heavy when empty. I do like mine and bought one for each of my sisters. My friend uses small covered wastebins from IKEA and doubles two grocery plastic bags in each of them. The outer bag holds the scoop and the inner is lightly tied until it is full and then both are tossed. With her method, it may still be knocked over and the odor is very strong when you lift the lid. Otherwise you do not smell anything so that may be an alternative for dogs.

I've been using this to clean my yard for twelve years. I've been through about four of them in that time. I have a boxer and two small poodles. Depending on the droppings I can pick up three or four poops in a trip. So I would think so.

My dog is just 8 lbs and it works great even for the tiny droppings he leaves at the end. May have to try 2 times to get it, but I don't have to bend over and pick it up with my hand.

I have found that shake and water afterwards works best. It makes the feed trickle into the dirt :)

Yes. I have a standard poodle who is approaching 40 lbs...and poops a lot. Of course, I pick up a lot and do a deep clean once a week. Deep clean is...fill up the tray with hot bleach water, let sit for 15 minutes, brush of the grass with a deck brush, and drain. I have the drain hose hooked up on mine (added a mesh at the tray drain to make sure the hose doesn't clog with leaves or other matter). Good luck!

I thought it did a really good job. It picks up a lot of dog hair. Have a pug with fine hair sheds like crazy. I use the broom first then vac. Also use it on the kitchen floor.

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'm no expert, but we have a 1/2 acre of wooded area out back where our spends a lot of time, and I've been using Ground Clear back there for years.The dog remains as frisky as ever. (For what that's worth).

I have 2 70 lb dogs and 3 cats and I fill it every day. the reservoir will be empty in 24 hours, I check it every morning and night. Take it apart and clean it once a week, including taking the impeller out of the motor and making sure there is no hair. It will start to make a noise when it gets low, fill it quick. Motor will seize if you let it get too low.

It has great suction and picks up all the dirt piles in our garage and in the cars. There's an internal dust filter that easily pops out and is easily cleaned (even washed). The end of the hose connection is approx 1" in diameter and then there is attachments that you can use. I'm not too familiar with working around horses to how the attachments would contour to the horse body to suck up the dirt is your call. I haven't used the wider floor attachments too much (approx 12" in length) but they have brush edges that would help. There is the small dust brush attachment that is approx 3" in diameter that could work well. I hope this gives you some insight and info to make a good decision. The unit also mounts very easily to the wall and will keep the hose up off the ground and from underfoot at you mentioned.

I have a lab and even with the short hair dog after 2 days with the see through filter it looks like half my dog is in there. This is also why I also like the bag less canister,with my bagged vacuum I needed to buy bags once a month My answer to you is yes it will suck up the long hair

We've been using ours for over a month, and today was the first time. There were 3-4 small pieces of feces that fell through the scoop. I fished them out with the old litter scoop, and problem solved. We've run it roughly 4 times a day for 35 days...140 times with no smell. Once in a blue moon it'll happen, I can live with that. -I just turned on the exhaust fan and closed the door.

Great questions!! The amount of hair the brush picks up is based on several factors. How many animals in the home, how much time your animal(s) spends in each room, and how often you rug rake. The first time of usage, most likely will be the heaviest. I suggest you check the head after cleaning one room at a time. Similar to your hair brush, the rug rake brush is easy to clean! Just take a straight tooth comb and swipe it across the brissels. You'll be good to go! It's great for a "quickie" clean up around holidays. And, what a terrific gift for all your cat and dog ownering friends! Great questions!! The amount of hair the brush picks up is based on several factors.

We had a yellow lab who shed hair like he manufactured it. It was no problem to empty. I emptied after each use. You may have to pick some out and brush some off the filters but I have had several portable vacs and have been more pleased with this than any other.

My white lab sheds profusely. So far, I haven't changed bags more than once per month. I also try to pick up the "snow drift hairballs" before I vacuum. I am still amazed at the engineering and forethought given to this product by the manufacturer. I am still very glad i bought it and would do so again. On a side note, our entire living area is either hardwood or Italian ceramic tiles. Only the bedrooms contain carpet.

I'm not sure - sorry. We have a lab that sheds heavily, more so than most dogs as he has a skin issue and I don't change them that regularly but we vacuum all the time.
