Commercial Shoulder Vac Pro Backpack Vacuum

The Hoover Windtunnel XL. I have one for just because but it proved its mettle when we moved into a rental home that, we were told, had been professionally cleaned and the carpet was new. Nope. Previous occupants had two Great Pyrenees who spent a lotta time indoors. The carpet was such that it effectively hid the fur until I got busy with the vacuum. ASTONISHING amount of fur and dander collected. This unit also has a washable double filter that makes a huge difference in maintaining the level of effectiveness. Also, I have a commercial-grade, body-carried cannister vacuum (also Hoover). It works miracles on hard-surface floors and upholstery, and carpet edges and baseboards.  The cash outlay is an investment ($130 for the cannister, $100 for the upright) but there's a lot of comfort in knowing these two can tackle almost anything.

For a second there I thought you meant the dog was the best vacuum. 🤣 I had a 20+ year old commercial grade Hoover and that thing was great for fur in carpets. We also have a small (handheld with attachments) Shark that does a good job, but we left the heavy stuff to the Hoover. I think Bissel makes one designed for pet hair (and not hugely expensive like a Dyson). I have a Bissel carpet shampooer which does a great job.
