Platinum Member Rob Wrangler Posted July 22, 2018 Platinum Member Share Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) Hello Everyone, Just wondered what Dog Owners used to try and protect the fabric of your Jeep? I've just come back from a weekend away and laid down some throws; tried to be diligent, and still had dog hair on the side fabric in the boot. Any ideas welcome, stopping short of sticking carpet protector down! Cheers Rob.

neal Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Like Jim I have given up the fight. 2 Beagles means a fair bit of hair in the back. I do crate mine when they are in the Jk which helps. I to have found that rubber gloves or a rubber squeegee can pick up the hairs. It’s a case of embrace the Beagle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member fen01 Posted July 22, 2018 Platinum Member Share Posted July 22, 2018 As there is just Mrs Fen01 and the hound, we have a hammock across the back seat when he travels, so we don't have the dog hair issue, just sand and stuff. Also helps we have a dog which does not really shed much hair and leather seats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Rob Wrangler Posted July 23, 2018 Author Platinum Member Share Posted July 23, 2018 Ha Ha! I've got a small hatchback for work; and of all things, it's the smallest vehicle that houses the dogs usually! Whoever invents Vehicle Fabric that repels Dog Hair, will make a lot of money I tell you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Rob Wrangler Posted July 23, 2018 Author Platinum Member Share Posted July 23, 2018 Ha Ha! I've leather seats too, although on this occasion, I housed the dogs in the boot area; where the sides have what I call, that "Fabric Velcro". I'm going to B&Q later, for something totally unrelated..I'll have a nose too see what might help . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Rob Wrangler Posted August 18, 2018 Author Platinum Member Share Posted August 18, 2018 Ahem. Quadratec informed me after I had placed the order that they were out of stock, and anticipate an early September arrival, and thats after I chased them for an update. I may decide to cancel if the delay continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member TimC Posted October 23, 2018 Platinum Member Share Posted October 23, 2018 You say that Jim, but somehow the hairs STILL manage to get everywhere. Up until fairly recently, April in fact when we got the Compass ( dogs previously confined to the KJ and the YJ ) I had managed to keep the dogs out of the JK altogether and I’d still find dog hairs in it!

If this was my two, they would now be laying on a bed of feathers. Alice has "starred" quite a bit in these pages Jim, ask Timc.

Platinum Member Rob Wrangler Posted November 24, 2018 Author Platinum Member Share Posted November 24, 2018 Hi Everyone, You know 'the thing' when you order something, and then just leave it, until you decide to deal with it. Yes 'that'! Well here is the Dirt Dog Divider as shown in the pic. The instructions were on You Tube, and in my view it's not bad. HOWEVER, if you look closer, there is a small section on either side at the bottom which the divider doesn't cover. I'm going to see how I can cover this tomorrow when it's daylight as the Jeep has that naff velcro/ carpet fabric. Suffice to say, it, the material is akin to a strong mosquito net. Full review will come when I take the dogs out in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
