I had originally wanted the "animal" version of this vacuum, but after borrowing a friends (my husband wanted to "test drive" it before making such a large purchase) we realized that with our dogs (boxers- the hair is really short) we didn't really need the animal version. Instead we chose the asthma & allergy since one of our dogs is allergic to EVERYTHING we figured it would help her out as well as us. This vacuum is expensive, but well worth it! After vacuuming a small section of the carpet we tested the feel of the carpet against the section we had not done yet. This vacuum actually makes the carpet feel softer! Not to mention that the carpet looks like new again. The suction is so strong that it pulls the carpet back up in high traffic areas. I cannot say enough about this vaccum! I actually look forward to vacuuming, but don't let my husband know!
