I can't offer much for reccomendations on vacuum cleaners (mine is a cheapo that only is so-so on pet hair) however since it says you live in FLA where it's basically warm year round (no heater running for the winter) I'd be somewhat concerned with why your dog is shedding so much. Sometimes excessive shedding can be a tip off to other things going on. Have you mentioned it to your vet?

If it's simiply a dry hair coat try Shed Stop, an omega 3 oil you put on the food daily, available at most Wal-Marts.

But I would have a check up done at the vet to rule out other things like ringworm, fleas, mites, allergies, etc. just to be safe.

Good luck.
