The furminator is an excellent tool. I used it on all of my animals with good results. It stripped large amounts of hair off of my cat, and lab/boxer, and even stripped a handful off of my Jack Russell. I have used it on my grandmother's keshound as well, though it doesn't work nearly as efficiently. As well as having long hair, the hair on a dog like a keshound or Pomeranian or any dog with similar hair is not only long, but kind of curly. It mats easily and you absolutely have to get as many tangles out as possible, because the furminator does catch any tangle. I got out as many as possible and then went slowly and easily with the furminator. Once I got all the tangles out, then I could use it fairly normally and it stripped out just as much hair as a wire brush, which I'd used twice. Once before and once after a bath. It was more effective in most places when I used both while line brushing. I've also used it on our horses with good success. It's a very good tool and the only thing I see that's a problem is that it catches in tangles and it tends to catch in places like on the shoulders, because the fat or skin bunches up there and you don't want to just pull it through. Besides that, it's a very good tool and I would recommend it for anyone. Just be careful when learning to use it and let it pretty much operate under it's own weight at first till you get the hang of it. I purchased a large and small. To tell you the truth, the large is probably the most versatile. We got the small for the cat and my jack russell, but the large works fine on them.Get more detail about FURminator Large Yellow deShedding Tool with 4-Inch Edge.
