[Dailydrool] Fur, fur and more fur

[Kirsten Jungert]

I foolishly packed away the slicker brush and my imitation furminator with my 
lawn knick-knacks last Fall.  So, off to Petsmart I went.  We have added a 
Shep/Lab to our Basset household so I had no idea on what kind of brush to get 
for her.  


Well, the Sales person at Petsmart showed me this brush that fits in the palm of 
my hand and is made by Kong.  It is all rubber.  She said she uses it for her 
dogs and swears by it.  Have to admit, I felt pressured as she wouldn't leave me 
alone in the grooming aisle, so I bought the Kong brush thinking I could always 
return it.  Well, I LOVE it.  I couldn't believe my eyes when I did a few swipes 
down our Shep/Lab's back and all the fur that came out.  I could have clothed a 
small child with all the fur!  Works well on the Bassets too as they have the 
undercoat. 


The Kong was about $8-$9.  I did find my slicker brush and imitation furminator 
over the past weekend.  I may try them after I use the Kong brush just to see if 
they get more fur out.  But for the longer haired dogs - I would definitely 
recomment the Kong brush.

Good luck,

Kirsten
