petertmartin Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Undercoat rake and if you wanted a blower I agree I use an undercoat rake, a bristle kind of brush that's got bobbly bits on the end and a mit that collects loose fur but all you really need is a rake. Stay away from furminators or anything that strips or cuts their fur as that will damage their coatSent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseafan Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 As above, a rake as it doesn’t rip their fur out. Furminators are a definite no no, not kind to fur.Sent from my iPad using Husky Owners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onceuponadime Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 I use a metal comb. I don't like the furminator they drag and break hair off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepsky5 Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Furminator was so highly recommended online - and by dog groomers too! Although it was kind of expensive, we got one and we used it. Our dog would tolerate it, but every once in a while I'd hit a sensitive spot and he would wave his mouth at me. Now I am using my husband's old comb (free) and it works great and he enjoys being groomed...he lies there and falls asleep. I can even comb out the fur on his haunches, and other sensitive places that he wouldn't let me do before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Huskyfun Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Everyone recommended the furminator to me. Luckily I didn’t use it on the girl because her coat is different but, this is what it did to my boy. This was my boys neck after one brushing. Stripped all the Guard hairs. My daughter was brushing him and this is what I say when I walked in. He feel asleep and just let her brush away. (She knows not to brush over the same area over and over) This was just a few brush strokes. He is a picture of his shoulder. Granted he does itch a lot in this area.... But it is taking forever to grow back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petertmartin Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 That's why you don't use furminators because it cuts their fur and damages their coat. Most groomers don't understand double coated breeds. I take mine to a groomer who specialises in huskies and understands the breed luckily as mine is a psycho [emoji28]Sent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
