Furminator Deshedding Tool for Short Hair Medium Dogs

It didn't help remove his hair at all. And this boy sheds A LOT! for a little chihuahua. I was really surprised that each stroke returned literally 3 hairs in the brush head. It was disappointing, especially considering the steep cost. His undercoat is not the thickest. Perhaps it works better with a thicker undercoat? But I figured with how much his top coat sheds, it should still help. I was mistaken.

I brought my dog to my neighbors house recently and she recommended this and even let me try hers out on my girl. I have a beagle-border collie mix and her hair is about an inch or so when I trim her. It works so well, she’s got this crazy undercoat that just never ends no matter how often I brush her with regular plastic bristle brushes. With this, it ONLY pulls out the undercoat and that is what we need, badly. After one session, she looked like she had lost a few pounds. The shedding while petting has decreased dramatically. You do have to be gentle with it and try not to do multiple passes in the same area because it’s metal head can irritate. I remedy this by brushing her every other day to give her skin a break. She doesn’t love it while it’s happening like ... MoreI brought my dog to my neighbors house recently and she recommended this and even let me try hers out on my girl.

She doesn’t love it while it’s happening like she does with a regular brush, but I think she’s feeling much cooler without the buildup of undercoat! This brush makes it possible to trim her now without the clippers getting jammed with undercoat fluff. Best investment!

Both of my dogs have short hair and very sick and super soft. So i was recommended this brush to get that undercoat hair, since they seem to shed, just not like a medium to long hair dog. It almost doesn't work at all on my one dog, honestly I'd actually sat it doesn't work at all on him, and the other dog, it works a bit to get some of the hair but not like I expected. So I thought why not try it on my cat. It works great on her! Gets tons of hair and her undercoat. The little button on the handle pages up to push all the hair out the comb part so super clean and easy. The hair strips look like weird fuzzy caterpillars or something. Definitely recommended for longer hair or two laser type dog fur rather than dog like frenchies.

I’ve got a German shepherd (aka German Shedder) and I love this! I bought it because a friend recommended it to me and compared to the old brush we used, it gets way more hair. It’s also good for brushing out matted hair (our dog has allergies and licks himself a fair bit) without being painful or pulling hair out. I love that it has the guard so I don’t need to worry about hurting myself on it when we aren’t using it. You still have to do it consistently, as with any grooming, but it’s always satisfying to see the big pile of hair after I’m done brushing him out.

I purchased this on Amazon and honestly, I did not like it. After several brushings with it, more and more hair came out. At first, I just thought she had a severe undercoat, but I realized it was actually cutting her hair! In two spots she had a raw area (and no, I did not put pressure or over comb her). The first swipe was typical of the undercoat and the second was a little more shedding. The 3rd swipe is when I realized it was actually cutting her hair and I immediately put the shedder up. I do not recommend this product for anyone with furbabies with short hair!

This is a great product, if you're wanting to cut you're pups hair. It has little razors that trims your dog's fur it doesn't actually help with the undercoat. If your looking for assistance with pulling out undercoat then look for a rake brush. If you're wanting to trim the tip coat this is great. Just be careful to not use it frequently as you could damage your dog's skin and cause them to get a sun burn if you over trim them.

I have bought FURMINATOR products before, but as I now also have a border collie with long hair, I bought this new FURMINATOR UNDERCOAT DE-SHEDDING TOOL. It promotes reducing loose hair from shedding by up to 90 percent. And it does exactl .that. Made with a skin guard to prevent digging into your babies skin, a button to release fur. Comes with a money back guarantee.

Really good brush that my dog actually enjoys! Other brushes seem to “hurt” her or make her uncomfortable, but when I use the furminator, she doesn’t want you to stop brushing her! LOL I also really like the button that releases the hairs making it quick and easy to clean the brush and continue brushing her or store for the next time. As far as the brush itself, it DEF brushes her and gets rid of her winter coat- she’s a pit mix and I’m always amazed at the amount of hair that comes off the brush! Def helps keep shedding to a minimum- last thing you want to to pet your dog and have a hand full of hair! So far, have had this for 3+ years now and it’s still going strong and works just as well. It is a little pricey in comparison to other brushes on the market but it’s ... MoreReally good brush that my dog actually enjoys!

I have labradors with super thick coats. In spring and fall they start to look like crap as their coats start changing for the season. My sister-in-law is a groomer and recommended this tool. We purchased it and have been using for a few years now. It was pricy for a comb but we went with it anyway. Once a week we brush our dogs and find that it really works to removes excess fur. We see a huge difference in their appearance and shed ratio. I don’t find clumps of fur all over everything and my dogs look sleek and shiny. The tool itself is sturdy, heavy, and quality, though it didn’t stop my dog from chewing it up so I recommend putting it away so you don’t have to purchase a replacement like I did. It’s been with the money and we’ve since purchased one for our cats ... MoreI have labradors with super thick coats.

Best. Purchase. Ever.

I am so glad I discovered this tool. My Cattle Dog doesn't shed heavily all year round, but when she goes through one of her bi-annual sheds, her fur comes off in droves, and there is fur everywhere - on the carpet, on the floor on the furniture, on my clothes, in the food, in the air. I used a regular shedding comb for a while, but it never picked up the bulk of her flying fur. A friend suggested I get a the furminator, THis thing really works! I now use it every morning as part of our routine. As she approaches a shed cycle the fur captured by the furminator starts to build. In the midst of her heavy shedding I use it 3-4 times a day, and that keep my air (and my carpets, clothes, furniture, food, etc) relatively free of her fur.
