The main advantage of this particular brush is that the fur/hair that is removed while brushing can be removed more easily from the rush than with other brushes. Since poodles don't shed, much less hair is removed than with other dogs. We also have a large chocolate Labrador retriever who sheds a lot. His straight coarse but soft fur is only 1 inch long in the longest areas so it isn't too difficult to remove from the brush. We use this brush on him, but we have other brushes for the dogs, so this one doesn't really have the advantage for us that it might have for other breeds of dogs. I hope this helped a little. It is a good brush, but I think a sturdy "slicker" brush with bristles that are not too painful for your best friends (dogs) might work just as we'll.

It will work but not as well as it should. This is for cats. The teeth are designed for cat fur. I would get the medium or large dog brush. Labs have short hair and beagles so get short hair not long. The teeth won't pull as much short hair bc they are designed for long hair. The large is not huge. It is a good size for a lab. I use the XL on my golden retriever and my medium dog. The medium is pretty small.

I think the short hair would work fine for both. This is an amazing brush! I also have a Lab/ Retriever mix and it really does the job. I have also used it on our 2 previous Great Danes. This is the only brush out of several purchased that really works and mine have now been in use for a few years without problem. I would recommend using it outside however, because it works so well...hair will go everywhere!

I showed dogs for years. Shelties and some can have thick coats. This is not a large, commercial dryer but if you line brush against the Lay of the coat, it should work well. Of course, with that dense a coat, it will take a while. My son and daughter, who tried to take mine, now got their own they use on their large breed dogs that have shorter,more thick coats. Love this when they are blowing coat. Wash them, take them outside to blow dry and watch the fur fly. �. Mine has lasted for years.

I have a Pitt Bull and he sheds like crazy! I have the dyson animal. Was wondering if it will work for his type coat?

I use my FURminator as brushes and as de-shedding tools. I have small FURminators for my 2 small dogs and large ones for the 2 long-haired large dogs. If your small dog has short hair be sure a get the brush for short hair. My dogs truly enjoy their "FURminator time"; I use a small dog, short hair one on my Jack Russell terrier, a small dog long hair brush on my Shitzu , and large dog long hair FURminators on my Chow/Lab mixes. I believe the FURminators are well worth the money.

Start with the 1/2 inch collar for smaller dogs. The large 1" is for Dobies, pit bulls, boxers, etc. All my dogs are short hair so I really don't know about the matting issue.

I bought a large/XL for my dog who measures 31 inches in that area. The L/XL should work perfectly for you and your lab. It really does reduce pulling. I tried going back to my dog's choke collar once last week and it was an awful walk again....me being dragged around and "yelling" at him to stop pulling and heel! I couldn't wait to get back home and get the spoon halter back on. Happy hiking...should make it a lot safer for you, especially on steeper downhill slopes.

We have austrilian puppy. Full grown, she will be a medium to large dog. I use the tool on her now and it works great.

Get large. I have an 80lb. shepard and large was too small. I bought the muzzle and cannot use it.

should do well with the medium or large size. I have a Lab, Golden and a Basenji, all three do well with the large size.

YES. I have a Scottish Terrior and use it to remove the soft undercoat. It does a good job. Should work well for a saluki.

I have a 60lb Husky, the double for me. If your dog has an undercoat then double for sure. I have a deeper comb and I don't use it, I use this instead, and the slicker brush.

I got the medium one for our 65lb lab mix and it works just fine! I think the larger ones just cover more surface area, so it's possible they could get the job done quicker for bigger dogs. For us, the less expensive medium size was definitely the way to go!:)

Depends on your dog's coat. I have a lab and a german shepherd. While the lab has a double coat, it is not the correct brush for her. The german shepherd, has a longer double coat and it's perfect. I use it first and followup with a wider toothed comb to pick up the loose fur, then a run outside to let the rest of the fur fly. It would not be good for shorter coated dogs like a dalmatian or beagle.

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)

How do you know if you should get the small or large combs. We have a bichon Shitzu and a mini goldendoodle and want to start grooming them with our new Andis ultra edge. Just not sure if we need the small or large combs. THANKS:)
