Understanding What the Furminator Is?

I have to be honest on this one and say that Furminator is really a funny name, but I guess that this is the reason to why it got to be so popular. So if you don't really know what it is about then you should know that the Furminator is a very useful tool if you have pets that are shedding. We all know that there is a time in the year that our cats and dogs will start shedding and this means that they will leave hair all over the house. This can be really annoying and can leave the house a mess.
pet comb
I had seen the Furminator commercials on television and it looked great, but because it was one of the "As Seen On TV" advertisement I was a little skeptical. During the summer last year though, when the shedding problem was the worst, I gave in and bought one. When it arrived it didn't look like anything special, just another version of a metal dog comb. The first time I used the comb it took out the most excess fur, and during successive grooming the amount of fur it removed began to decrease. I typically comb my dogs about once a week, which is my best estimate for grooming them based on their needs.
Over the years tool after tool has come to market promising to end pet owner's woes by eliminating shedding. Most have come and gone leaving dissatisfied customers.
Today we have the Furminator, and the question is does it really work. Co founded by a former pet groomer it seems the chances are good that the product really delivers. The product was developed over several years as the creators attempted to make a shed brush that would grab the loose undercoat and pull it free without damaging the top coat.
I bought the Furminator medium deshedding tool because I have what I would call a medium sized dog. My dog isn't any kind of special breed I guess you could just call him a long hair mutt. Normally in the summer time like most pets he sheds extremely badly, but after I started using my Furminator medium deshedding tool on him I definitely saw a reduction in shedding.
Perhaps the most convincing testimony comes not from professionals, but from a gentleman with more at stake, his house! He owns ten fur-bearing pets! You can imagine the amount of hair he must deal with on a daily basis. His opinion is that the Furminator is the greatest thing since sliced bread. After using a favorite de-shedding tool for years, he picked up the Furminator more out of curiosity than anything else.
The verdict was soon in - his favorite tool was now the furminator! Great at removing tons of hair without pulling or cutting healthy hair. In addition, he now has less hair to deal with in his home, no small feat for a home with ten pets.
