I have a beautiful border collie who sheds a lot and I have absolutely no need of any other attachments than what came with my Rainbow. I love it!!! My house is so clean and fresh smelling! I hope this helps :)

I think this brush will be great when your dog is young. When he grown, you may need to add a metal comb-type brush to get down deeper into his/her undercoat). Also, I'd go with the larger since your dog will be larger in short order.

You know I am not sure about this. I think you need to call the manufacturer on that one. We did not trim our collie's fur around his neck as indicated. I think his skin is very sensitive and that might not be a good thing for him. So, anyways; it is going on about 1 1/2 months now; and our life has changed. We like the fact that it promotes a more balanced dog. We do not put it on longer than the recommended time. It is supposed to be 11 hours or less. Fortunately, it works well with walking, playing, indoor play where it isn't needed, and the outdoor play is now QUIET. The phone number of Sportdog is 1-800-732-0144.

No. I have a Sheltie (she has a double coat) and I have long thick hair that sheds too, which usually clogs brush rollers and wears down all of my machines. More than 6 months later of vacuuming at least 1x a week, and the roller is relatively clear of any hair, fuzz, etc.

well regardless of how it works Dogs as a rule don't like being brushed. It took a little coaxing and man handling the first time I brushed Kirby the dog but now when he see's the brush he knows whats happening and just endures. (his eyes still say he doesn't like it). First brushing resulted in a bag of fur ( and this is a LAB!). Weekly brushings have yielded less hair but my house is much, much, much less fur covered! Would have paid double for this product. WARNING: when brushing over less meaty areas (like the legs) be careful...doesn't feel too good if you use the same tension as the back areas. Kind of like when a hair dress rakes over your ears with a comb....ouch. You will develop a plan of attack and will be successful!

I got the small one for long hair for my Japanese Chin.... beagles have short hair right? Then I would say get the small brush for short hair dogs.Anise

It was recommended to us by our vet because it won't irritate their skin as other brushes will. If their fur isn't completely matted down, it will work great! Enjoy your new pet!

My daughter has been sleeping with the Panda for over a month now and I have not seen any shedding. Hope that helps!

Hello Daniel,This is Jude from HappyDogz.We're glad to help you with this.Our small - medium sized deshedding tool is actually for smaller dog breeds. We believe that the large sized brush would be a better fit for your Lab compared to the smaller brush. I hope this answers your question.Best regards,Jude(HappyDogz Team)

It made all of my dogs unbelievably soft within a week or so. I have two dachshunds & a Boston terrier mix. My sister's German shepherd feels like a puppy, she is sooooo soft. So, shedding hasn't changed much, but I enjoy the soft coats.

I'm just a customer, not a vet. My dog is a small West Highland Terrier. I bathed him twice a week for 3 weeks, now we're down to once a week. Not sure how long we'll continue that routine, but he's doing awesome!!!

well u can actually "brush" them with this. It is mainly used to get the loose hair off of them, but my pug and 1/2 lab LOVE it when i use it on them. So it's like brushing them too. I would be careful not to bear down too hard though as the prongs are metal and can hurt them if you really bear down on it..but its a great tool to give them a nice look and clean out all their excess hair.

I only have a short haired dog and it de-sheds a lot of her hair... have to do it a couple times a week, not FurMaster's fault... just the dog.

Sorry to hear that you are having a problem. I have a Pug who just turned three in March. I purchased the collar after one episode of finding him chasing cars on highway. The collar worked from the very first time I used it. I introduced him to the collar the first time and he has learned what his limitations are. I have even let him go out without the collar on and he had learned where his restrictions are. Sorry I couldn't help.

i like the scent better but i am using both alternating of course, because my little mauxie has turned into a little ball of mats and i brush her and remove mats twice a day! she is trimmed to 1 inch length hair and bathed every 3 weeks. actually used my shampoo and conditioner on her today out of desperation and she still mats but she smells great! THE STUFF SMELLS NICE :)

Hi Shelley, yes its very well made and durable I own 2 gsd and a yorkie. My 2 gsd have heavy undercoats and furminator takes quite a beating with my 3. My friend who recommended it to me has 2 full grown Huskeys. So I think that speakes for it self. If you still have doubts just call your local dog groomer and get some confirmation/tips. Best of luck to you and your fur baby. :)
