Picture kind of speaks for itself


I've been adding salmon oil to their food recently and it does seem to have reduced their moulting so might be worth a try?

The furminator is an amazing tool. We have got one at work. It works wonders on the dogs that we have come in. The amount of hair you get come out by using the furminator is unbelievable.
Thumbs up to the Furminator.

I wouldn't replace a normal brush with a Furminator though. I tend to do one big Furminator session when necessary - haven't needed to do it in a while lately as they've not really been moulting that badly, but when they get to that tufty time of year, doing it once a week/fortnight helps with the amount of shedding hair left around the house. Brushing daily with a normal bristle brush will help stimulate the skin into producing its natural oils to keep the coat in good condition

I also got mine from ebay, about 30quid cheaper than pet shops! Bargain. I have an EBT x lab and it works wonders on him, he moults constantly and this brush helps keep on top of it.
