ChuckingFluff 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2011 one word Furminator, awesome tool. You can brush them till the cows come home then use this tool and it'll get 10 times more out than what you thought was possible. http://www.furminator.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stippled Popper 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2011 Combs, brushes, and things such as a Furminator are less likely to lead to accidental injury than a sharp pair of scissors... particularly if like mine, the pet is prone to move around while being groomed.

rich5665 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2011 Are you guys being serious? Totally. Besides my dog I have a Chinchilla as well. Instant dubbing. Mix in a little ice dubbing a there you go. The Chin is white, the Dog all Black. I used to have a couple of rabbits as well that shed like crazy. Filled one slot of a dubbing box up with brown rabbit fur after a good brushing.

Al Beatty 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2011 Hi ChuckingFluff, Those are beautiful pictures of the dogs, especially the pic of your dog. A great relationship between the two of you really shows in her eyes and the pic. We used to use dubbing from our dog (Dubbin) and it was really good stuff. Question: Do you wash the dubbing before using it? We used to wash Dubbin's fur with a little Woolite before using it to get rid of some of the "doggy smell." You are right, the Furinator is an awesome tool. It sure worked on our guy. Take care & ...

Peterjay 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2011 The best way to avoid the doggy odor is to use fur from a chow chow. They have no smell whatsoever. The black chow has a beautiful charcoal gray undercoat, and the red chow has nice tan fur. I have one of each, so I've got a lot of bases covered. One brushing will yield a year's supply at the very least. If you happen to know a doggie groomer who is brave enough to work on chows, you can have him/her save you some fur.

ChuckingFluff 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2011 Thanks Al and sorry for the late response. I use the same method as you to get rid of the smell, I must have enough now to last a life time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
