Works great, pushing the button down frees all the hair you just brushed, no longer do you need do manually pull the hair off of your brush, it just falls away. It is pretty effective at getting all of the loose hair on my dogs, which is a crazy amount lately. There have been a couple times though where one of my dogs snapped because some of his hair was tangled and the brush just pulled on it, hurting him a bit, but he still trusts me, I will say that he hates letting me brush around his bottom for some reason, don’t think it’s pain from the brush though.We have a chocolate lab and 2 adopted kitty cats. The shedding would overwhelm us without a furminator. We have been using an old one (at least 10 yrs old) with missing teeth. Decided it was time for a new one. This one gets so much loose hair. The cats throw themselves down on the driveway begging for a "brush brush." The dog's coat looks magnificent. He gets complimented all the time. AND it was way cheaper than when I bought one 10+ years ago. 5 stars!This comb is the best I have found, for my dog. She is a 65 lbs Australian Shepherd, and sheds alot of hair.This comb takes it off, and she loves it too. She looks so much better!Thank you, good productThis thing is ridiculous. You may think you've brushed the hair off your dog, but oh no, my friend, you haven't.Let's get one thing clear, your dog has too much hair, and the FURminator was sent by aliens in the future to help you fix that. Let's get started!First, go put on something you don't plan on wearing for the rest of your life. Unless you wear plastic trash bags (Derelicte?), you're about to be wearing your very own authentic dog-hair suit. A lint roller will help, but plan on tearing through half the roll of adhesive sheets when you're done.Next, go outside. If you have a particularly ornery dog, you may want to throw a leash on him, but don't you dare FURminate in your home, unless you're the first person to brush their dog because you want MORE hair in your house. When you're done, you'll have little fur tumbleweeds bouncing around while you stare in disbelief at your dog, which will still have fur, somehow, despite the hairpocalype unleashed by this innocuous little brush.Get help. This isn't a leisurely afternoon in the back yard where Rover pants contentedly while you haplessly brush away the loose hairs. This is war, and in war, you need two hands. One person holds Trigger in place, the other FURminates.Get in there. Short, fast strokes are your best bet. Use one hand to hold the skin in place, and the other to run the brush through. Use the handy button on top to clear out the teeth when it gets clogged. Expect to do this about a million times. Seriously, you're going to wonder how much longer it can possibly go on. Longer, amigo.Stop when the fur piles are waist-high, or when the fur changes color. I'm convinced you would end up with a shaved dogif you just kept going, but the pile of fur would be unmanageable. The FURminator allegedly pulls the undercoat first, so when your brown dog starts getting lighter in color, we assume that means the top coat is getting attacked. But who cares? Go nuts, the d#mn beast will grow it all back in 2 minutes anyways, right?This is the be-all end-all of grooming products for your dog. If you hate having animal hair in your house, and have the discipline to use it every week, the FURminator will change your life.Cons: Doesn't work on human back hairEven though this particular one is for dogs it works wonderful for my cats. I watched a video of a pro groomer and was able to catch a glimpse & this was the exact product he was using. You will be pleased. You won't believe your eyes when you see how much loose hair you pet carries around.One of the best pet grooming tools! I have German shepherds that have double coats and this comb removed more hair than anything I have used!This little brush will change your life! I’m not kidding. I was so tired of the shedding, the hair all over the house, the car and our clothes and furniture. I would brush my dogs and it would seem like it did nothing, I wasn’t wrong. I was so excited when I received it that I used it that same day. Let me just share that 1. you definitely do not want to do this inside your house 2. Be sure to have a bag, garbage can or bucket ready for the amount of fur you will collect. 3. If this is the first time using, make sure you’re wearing something you don’t mind getting fur all over. Lastly, read through the instructions on how to properly brush your furbaby so not to knick them. Then just watch how much fur comes out! My first time using this I was like a kid with a brand new yet and my dogs loved every minute of it! My cats not so much but I was pleased at how much fur I was able to take off of them too. You will not regret buying this little tool!I’m in love with this!!! This helped so much with my dogs shedding!! So easy to use and the way to get rid of the hair on the comb is so easy I love it! Recommend this for anyone with pets!!!Compré este producto para usarlo en mi golden Retriever. Tenia el mediano pero vi este en descuento y fue una excelente adquisición.Si nunca has usado un Furminator es una especie de cepillo metálico con mango y una pieza plastica empujada por un botón; el cepillo recoge el pelo muerto y, al empujar el botón, la pieza plastica hace que el pelo recogido se desprenda del cepillo, por ejemplo, dentro de una bolsa.Funciona muy bien, sin embarho sigo usando el mediano para partes menos anchas como debajo de las orejas.Después de una buena cepillada (20-30 minutos), mi golden queda muy suave y deja de tirar pelo por 3 semanas, a veces 4, dependiendo de la temporad del año.Dos perros y un gato, he tenido problemas con los pelos en tooooda mi ropa desde que los tengo (los amo igual) pero la vdd y sin querer sonar a infomercial se redujo un 90% o mas. Lo combine con el pet hair eraser y casi ni tengo pelos en casaPara referencia es un dalmata un labrador y el gato no se que raza es, pero es de pelo delgadoOjala y les ayude a la decisionCut the hair of the dog not just stripping the underneath parts. Very expensive as it won’t be used againhighly recommended have tried all kinds of brushes and combs my dog use to run and shake when he saw them . This actually pulls a carrier bag full of loose undercoat out of my short haired jack russell and he loves it he even sits and relaxes when i use it and will even turn round for me. (dosent run and hide when i get it out the cupboard )This removed so much hair!
