As someone with a German shepherd, vacuum the carpets. You can never get that pet hair out enough, and just when you think you're done there's more! I can feel it pleasing my sinuses every time I vacuum

I often think that anyone who has ever had to remove carpet would never choose carpet as a floor covering. Vacuuming just isn't really that effective. You always end up with heaps of this really fine "dust" (pet dander? dead skin?), it's just gross. Hard floors are the only way.

I agree! Can't wait to be able to have hardwood floors and put down a rug or two. But all this is so expensive so I'll take the gross off white carpet for now
