[Dailydrool] FURminator deshedding tools

[tomanddeb at tznet.com]

To the lady who asked about shedding solutions, I think the FURminator brush 
does work on SOME bassets. My Apples girl benefits greatly from regular use. 
She is one of those coat types that sometimes gets the little tufts of hair 
(not quite matts) and I can groom her quite nicely with this. My Zeke boy 
however, has EXTREMELY fine hair for an adult and it is better for him if I 
use a conventional brush. I get more of his undercoat with it than with the 
other one. FURminator also makes a grooming spray and if used moderately 
it's a  nice addition to regular brushing. And a good freshen up between 
bath times.  It is called FURminator waterless de shedding shampoo and 
conditioner. (Comes in a spray bottle) No I am not a representative of sales 
for this product, but when you find something good you want to pass it 
along . It is a fairly long lasting scent, but not over powering . I think 
some bassets are sensitive to anything too perfumey.  Also for those with 
allergies I don't know if they would have a reaction or not. None of mine 
have that problem, so it works good for me.     I still have to sweep a lot 
and vaccum and lint rollers are usually on the shopping list as well. All 
part of trying to be a good basset slave.... LOL.   Laura, SO glad it turned 
out to be just a nasty cyst on dear Geoffery, although they can be pretty 
scary too. Give Geoffery  a pet from  us and once again so glad it is  
getting better!    Debbie and the Masterpiece Bassets
