RE: Can only buy one more carrier--Kozy, MnM, other?
What kind of ring sling did you try? There are some pretty bad ones out there, so the problem may have been with the sling and not so much with you. Also, if you were wearing the sling up near your neck, that could cause the problem. Most slings - ring and pouch - are made to be worn on the shoulder (ball of the shoulder).
I don't have dog hair problem with the Mom & Me, but it also depends on the type of dog you have (some hair adheres differently than other hair).
