Moments later I found myself stationed in the middle of the living room, while Boss Lady's Mother worked me over with the Dyson and Boss Lady snapped pictures for evidence, I allowed myself to be groomed with a small appliance.
At first, I rather enjoyed it. It was kind of like being brushed.
I enjoyed it less when she started vacuuming against my fur. My fur grows in that direction for a reason.
You know, I think I'm getting kind of tired of this game. Are you done yet?
When Boss Lady's Mother finally gave up, she looked at the dirt canister and found that it was almost full with dog hair. She couldn't believe how much fur she'd vacuumed off me. I stepped away from the vacuum and gave myself a good shake to get everything back in place. She was appalled by how much hair puffed up into the air. So much for vacuuming all the loose hair off me.
Boss Lady now has another million dollar invention: a dog brush vacuum attachment. She envisions your standard dog brush, except it has a hollow handle. The handle then attaches to the vacuum so that the hair is sucked up as you brush the dog.

oooh - you're too late. They already make those. Our mom has Dr. Smith's Pet Hair Fantastic (a fancy name for a hollow brush that attaches to the vacuum cleaner). She doesn't use it on us, but she liked it for the big dogs (Leonbergers).
The Pet Buddy is a whole vacuum system made to suck hair off pets. It has a long hose so that the noise does't bother you.
I have tried and tried again to vaccuum Bullet's fluff directly from his body. He is never amused and oftentimes goes screaming like a stuck pig around the house. For fear my neighbors will call the police, I have given up and ripped every square inch of carpeting out of my house. I now rely on my swiffer, socks, and broom to get me through the day.
I also have a German Shepherd and have lost the battle with hair in my house. I have tried vacuuming him, but all I get is static.
I recently bought the furminator and love it so far!
I do wish I had a dyson like you though, I've heard such great things about them.
