If you know anything about this breed, they have a double coat and shed so much I could knit an afghan with her hair. I run ALL our clothes through the dryer for about 15 minutes first before putting them in the washer. Takes off all the hair, I clean the dryer vent while the clothes wash, then again after I dry them. Much better than using a lint roller!!

HOWEVER, I also fold the hook end of bras back twice, maybe 1/2 inch each, and use two large safety pins to keep them closed, then they go into a special bag made for these things. Undies go in these bags as well. So do all my sweaters or anything with lace or stretchy materials. I put my socks or stockings into these bags as well, so they don’t make a mess and get lost in the washing machine. Everything goes right into the dryer after they are washed, still in the bags. May take a little bit of time, but my clothes last a lot longer and don’t have snags and so forth on them. I think it is worth it!
