There seems to be dog hair everywhere at the moment, any recommendations? I don't brush Simba much, would this help?

Getting a stripping comb would be a big help Kirsty, yellows do seem to moult more than chocs and blacks so I`ve heard.
Its surprising how much comes off them when you use a stripping comb, I get enough off CJ to make 2 or 3 more Labs it seems

Yes - in a word it would hehehe 
I don't brush Danny very often, but do find that using his rubber mitt or shedding blade on him once or twice a week at the moment helps with the moulting...

I use a shedding blade on Sherpa it works wonders
As Mary says People have said that yellows appear to moult more than Black and Choccie labs.... Iv'e found this to be the case when i see Corbie and George next to Sherpa. Sherpa's fur covers them when he has occassion to play with them
Certainly on a weekly Basis George goes home with a good smattering of Sherpa fluff

I thought Dora was not loosing much hair until after a play session with my son 'covered' my carpet in yellow hairs didnt seem to notice it much until then- the black seem to blend in.
Looks like I'll have to get shares in 'sellotape' for my work (rather than school) uniforms after all!!
never saw the need fopr a shedding blade before...........
