[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really surprised your 4 yr old never bonded with the dog. Dit you guys go on walks, play fetch, doesn't your preschooler pet or lay on the dog...even back when she was a baby/toddler?

Can you limit where the dog goes in the condo? For us, the dog isn't allowed upstairs. We had a baby gate for years to reinforce this. It's nice to have a relatively hair free area in the house. Sure, I still track some hair from my clothes and socks upstairs, but it's minor compared to downstsirs.
We also have cushion covers on the couches. That helps too.

[b]Also OP, why are you so grossed out by dig hair to the point you want to throw up? That's a bit dramatic, no?[/b][/quote]

+1.  There's something off about OP's account.  It would seem that after years and years of owning this dog, and several years of living in a condo with the dog, one would've acclimated to the dog hair.  And also developed *some* affection for the dog, even if not a dog person to begin with.  I wonder if OP is depressed, or dissatisfied with something else in her life, and projecting on the dog.  Her husband isn't home most of the time--so she's basically a single parent, kid doesn't really know Dad, and yet her main concern is dog hair?  I dunno.[/quote]
