You can try a special brush (called a furminator) which takes out the bottom layer of hair (where a dog sheds from) but be careful to not overuse it, as it will pull the dogs hair if everything that was loose has already been removed. I know at the groomers (my fiance is one) they use a special type of condition and put it on the dog while dry, and it loosens the undercoat. Then they use a high powered dryer to blow the loose undercoat away.
