While we all love our codependent pets, we don’t necessarily love when their fur is as clingy as they are. But since — like many of you I’m sure — the head of my household reigns with an iron paw, compromises must be made.
That said, you don’t have to resign yourself to a fur-covered existence — but you may have to shell out some dough for a good vacuum. The good news is that if you shop at the right time, you can get a great deal on a top model. Right now, Walmart is offering the $250 Shark Pet Pro Cordless Vacuum Cleaner for only $144.

This stick vacuum may be low profile and lightweight, but don’t let that fool you — it is more than capable of tackling the most prolific shedders. It can run for up to 40 minutes on a single charge, and is made without a hair wrap, so the self-cleaning brush stays clear without you having to break out the scissors.
“I have a Lusky (half lab/half husky) who is no stranger to shedding,” said one shopper. “This powerful vacuum keeps up with all of the Lusky tumbleweeds without batting an eye. If you are on the fence like I was, just go ahead and get it…..you will not regret it. While I have loved my Dyson, this Shark outperforms my Dyson hands down.”
It also has a super powerful suction and turns easily into a hand vac for smaller messes or hard to reach areas. “This vacuum is perfect for my apartment,” said one shopper. “It picks up everything and works great! It’s got similar accessories to assist with cleaning furniture and small corners. My friend spent $600 on her cordless Bissell and in my opinion this one works just as well at a third of the cost.”
An extra larger dust cup allows you to vacuum for longer without having to empty it too frequently, and the Cleantouch Dirt Ejector makes emptying quick and easy.
If you want to test this vacuum out for yourself, the time to buy is now as this is a Black Friday special deal and it won’t be around for long.
