FURminator Curry Comb for Dogs & Cats With Short, Dense Coats | Removes Dust & Loose Hair, Distributes Natural Oils for Healthy Coat, Ideal for Short & Medium Coats, For Daily Use

This is the best brush for my dogs it takes off tons of hair. I have Dobermans I don’t know if it would work as well on fluffy dogs but absolutely works brilliantly for my guys

I had doubts about this when I ordered it, BUT this is an awesome product. The concerns about the room for the fingers in the other reviews is not valid in my use of the item because it is designed for you to use your 2 middle fingers with a finger on each side of the device. Hair comes off the dog (short hair) like magic and easily extracted from the brush., I LOVE this item. It is much better than my previous brush.

I have been looking for a grooming tool for my recently-adopted APBT. He has super short hair with no undercoat. I have the original FURminator that I used on my Labrador Retriever that worked great on his thick coat, but it's too harsh to use on an APBT - like raking metal across skin - and it's just not really effective. I tried the glove with the rubber dogs all over it. Again, worked great on my Labrador, but wasn't really effective on my APBT. I saw this during Prime Days, and there was a review where a lady showed a photo of her Boxer/Pitbull mix with the curry comb beside him full of hair. I said, "HA! That's exactly what I'm looking for!" and ordered it. Well, I guess her Boxer/Pitbull mix must have a more dense coat than my dog, because it wasn't collecting hair in it like in her photo. It works, though! I still use it to brush my APBT, and it definitely gets the loose hairs off. But it does not collect the hair in the tool, so I have to do it outside so that the loose hair will just fall off on the ground. It does make his coat silky soft. I am a 5'10" woman with large hands for a woman (long fingers). I did not find holding it with my fingers under the strap to be comfortable nor did I find it provides for as much control. However, there are rubber grips on each side of the comb, so I just hold it that way - like I would my computer mouse - and it is easy to hold, grip, and control. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because of the fact that it does not collect the hair of an APBT & I didn't find putting my fingers under the strap to be comfortable. However, it does say it's for "dense" coats, so as long as you don't have a pitbull mix or a dog with just a short 1-layer coat, it will likely collect the hair. I am happy with my purchase. I use it on my dog every other day or so. No rough edges or hardness that's uncomfortable to my dog at all.

works well on short hair dogs. We adopted a Chihuahua/rat terrrier mix who has a very thick short coat. Just one use of this comb removed a huge amount of loose hair

This little curry brush is okay but nothing like I had been lead to expect from reviews. Furminator brand always seems to have far better reviews that the actual products perform. This thing has a tiny, non-adjustable strap handle that doesn't really work well with a large sized hand. Not a deal breaker, since the shape of it makes it easier to grip without having to use the strap, but not ideal especially if you have arthritis as I do. The curry part is hard "rubber" ( I would actually consider this to be plastic, not rubber) and it really doesn't do much to grab loose hair, (as rubber or silicon would) which may be because I have single coated pugs and their fur is hard/slick rather than soft/puffy and while it loosens hair as I use it, it doesn't do anything to hold it for collection, so really I might as well not be using a brush at all. On the pro side, my slightly-difficult-to-brush dog will tolerate this curry, where he wouldn't let me touch him with a standard furminator. Also, it is reasonably priced and it was delivered promptly. That said, I will now go order an actual rubber curry brush, which is what I was shopping for before I saw this one, because I really need a grooming tool that 1) will loosen dead hair 2) will hold hair onto that hair until I can get it into a trash can, rather than on my floor, and 3) is soft enough that my dogs enjoy being brushed with it, rather than just tolerating it.

My 2 Labrador Retrievers actually tolerate this. With other brushes and deshedding tools, they let me get 2 strokes in and then their back muscles wrinkle and they run away. They've only responded well to an old '90s brush and to this curry comb. The comb gets a surprising amount of hair off of my dogs, especially the male with the plush coat! It works very quickly and leaves them looking lustrous! I have very small hands, even for a woman, so the comb fits me perfectly, but I know my dad's hands would absolutely not fit in the strap. However, I love that it's designed to be the shape of a computer mouse, so it fits in my hand nicely. Overall, this is one of the best grooming tools I've ever used, and my dogs actually let me brush them with it, so I'd say it's worth a try on dogs with shorter coats.

I have a pitbull and a doberman and have been searching for a good brush for their ultra-short hair; I purchased three brushes to test and compare- the FURminator curry, the FURminator Short Hair deShedding Tool for Medium Dogs , and the Untangler Grooma Groomer Brush (also Grooma Brush ). The FURminator curry was the worst, by far. As can be seen in the product image, the curry is designed with "nubs" in the center, and a tooth-type design around the edge. Although the description says it is made of rubber, as far as I can tell it is a hard plastic material, unlike the Grooma curry, which is made of firm rubber. My dogs seemed to find the FURminator curry uncomfortable, and unlike the rubber Grooma, the plastic of the FURminator did not grab the hair and help to remove it. In fact, after 20 minutes of brushing, almost no hair was removed. (I tried this brush first of the three, and the other two removed significant hair later the same day.) I did like the design countours of the brush, which made it easier and more comfortable to hold than the Grooma. However, the rubber strap across the back is small, and anyone with large hands would have trouble fitting their fingers in it. Although I wouldn't recommend the FURminator curry, I would highly recommend both the FURminator brush and the Grooma. (Please note, FURminator used to produce only one type of brush, and at that time didn't recommend them for pitbulls or other super short haired breeds, however they recently started producing different brushes for different coat lengths.) When testing those two brushes, they got approximately equal amounts of hair. The furminator brush required much less work, however the brush is very sharp, and one of my dogs hated the feeling. The Grooma required a firm brushing to get the hair, and could be difficult for someone with limited strength, but the same dog that hated the FURminator absolutely loved the Grooma. Update 2/11/12- Based on NewNoctum's recomendation I tried out the KONG ZoomGroom, Dog Grooming Toy, Boysenberry , and really liked it. It is just as effective as the Grooma, and the shape is a bit more comfortable to hold. The rubber feels slightly softer; it doesn't impact effectiveness, but at this point I can't comment on whether it will result in the brush wearing out faster or not. Would definitely recomend it over the FURminator curry.

My dog is a Mountain Cur with hair like a cross between a lab and a whippet. Over the years I’ve tried brushes, combs, mitts, blades, all with little or no success. Last week my sister and I were discussing grooming tools and I decided to try once again to find something. I stumbled upon this one while researching on Amazon using specific parameters. I used a regular furminator on a long haired cat years ago and it was amazing but I didn’t know they made this curry comb. So it came yesterday and when I opened it, I thought this will never work and it almost seemed like it would hurt because it isn’t rubber (or if it is, it’s a very hard type). Edited to add it is indeed rubber. Not only does it work but my dog loves it. I didn’t have to press down with any extra effort either. I got a good amount off of her this morning after we walked. It will now become part of our morning routine. What a great, unassuming little gadget! The size of a mouse but the power of a comb three times its size, comfortable in the hand, shaped to get small areas and, I think, well made. You can use it with how ever many fingers fit inside or just grasp it and bypass the handle altogether.

Good value. Works pretty good on my pug. Is it the best? No. But for the price it's definitely worth it.

Excellent for my broken haired puppy Jack Russell. Now looking at other goods from this company.

Disappointing. Does not help with deshedding my doggo

This is an amazing brush for Cat & Kitten Hair Grooming. Does the job beautifully without hurting the cats. i have two cats and both of them did not mind me brushing them with this. Loose hair got stuck into this comb which can be removed easily. Highly recommended for regular use.

Eine tolle Sache, um erstmal Staub Dreck und die losen Haare weg zu bürsten. Oder das tägliche Fellpflegeprogramm durchzuführen. Ich habe einen Hund mit Kurzem Haar mit Unterwolle und es bürstet so viele Haare aus, Wahnsinn. Ich würde es immer wieder kaufen. Obwohl es aus den U.S.A. geliert wurde, kam es super schnell an! Toll! Es liegt auch super in der Hand. In allem ein tolles Produkt. Ich habe auch den Furmibator Kamm. :)
