The one I got works GREAT ! I just used it on ms. Rainy this morning. I love it !

I think I want to get one. Gabby is a MAJOR shedder and I need something because we are getting very frustrated with all the shedding in the house.

Jamila · 07-21-2008, 02:33 PM

yeah there is so much hair in my house and my car. When I drive with the windows down its funny cause hair tornadoes form everywhere. Once I made the mistake of putting on lip gloss and then driving LOL take about a hairlip LOL

Doglover1988 · 07-21-2008, 03:11 PM

lol! Well you know what I just found my shedender and got a grocery bag full of hair off of Gabby! Maybe you could try one of those they are cheaper than furminators by a lot.

I wish I had this one because the smaller one takes longer

I don't have one, but know people that do, and they swear by it. Heard nothing but good things about it.

I've heard that with long, thick coated breeds (like Collies) you are better off just using a normal undercoat rake, but for people who have dogs like Huskies or Labs it is AMAZING. Never used one before, but know many who swear by it.

I also have a Shedender, and it works very well on ALL of my dogs, both short and longer coats. I've also used it to groom a friend's Poodle, and it works great!

I've never used Furminators myself, but i've also heard that they work well too.

Jamila · 07-21-2008, 08:38 PM

Im going to check into the shedender cause its way cheaper and if it works for you guys it should work for me

Doglover1988 · 07-21-2008, 08:57 PM

It works great on Lucy who has Medium hair and Gabby who has Shortish hair her hair is very huskylike in thickness and she has a double coat. It doesn't work very well on Gracie and Maggie but they both have very short single coats.

I just got a Shedender Pro tonight from Walgreens for $15 and gave it a quick try on Wendy (Sibe) and in 5 minutes got a plastic shopping bag of fur off of her....... I know a lot of people swear by the furminator but I dont think the price tag is worth it when you can get other good products for a lot less

Doglover1988 · 07-29-2008, 08:37 PM

I agree! The Shedender does a good enough job and is much less expensive. I really want to get the shedender pro though. I have the smaller one and it is harder to get a lot of hair with but I get grocery bags full off of my Husky mix all the time.

Jamila · 07-31-2008, 09:25 PM

I should be getting my shedender in the mail any day now I cant wait!
