stylishmarco Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Hello, I am looking for an advice on managing my Husky's shedding.  As per you , what grooming tools have you found most effective in dealing with their fur? I  heard about various brushes and deshedding tools ; but I am not sure which ones work best for Huskies specifically.😇 I have checked https://www.husky-owners.com/forum/33-powerapps-husky-general/ for reference but still need advice . Any  suggestion would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks in advance for your help!  Thank you🙂 stylishmarco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robke Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 for me it has always been a undercoat rake…do not use anything that slices and cuts like de furminator they just do damage to the coats and that take a long time to repair if it even repairs… the other thing i used when the blowout started was a waterblower (big doggie hair dryer) blows all the loose hair into the neighbours garden LOL...

wolfpup Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 I too have a dog blaster (doggie hair dryer) cost around £80 BUT it has paid for itself within 6 months as I no longer take them to a groomers.  Literally the best thing I have ever bought.  I have a rake  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ferplast-5850-Rake-Comb-15-5/dp/B001N00KGA/ref=sr_1_117?crid=22TQI6JMQZ4EJ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.eNdHP3K2rYQLNuDJjwLCYEgX_c2MJ1ekA2k2AWoeu2gP__xWWRTN4i-omQhcGF04ym7u31DhA2yiXQ1WOMiWeqkNNK5ZaL9ouO70j2OK-FZgCXU0EhwVnQF5MvI1akG_YPZOupj6h1X3_D4f1RciU3UetYWLoxkH7tHBfHGHjzkkXDqaoN2dEsYqKK9v1JKmvOBAdbGPBS9GU0cXVYa4Bk0D02BhXJ2SoQ5tlK3VGEAxNKEUK2hKMwyfK99FrOH870tVgZXf1nqRsuCGXylOXhosPKMHmoNmWW_AIEsCWSA.vmTnsR6O26Ow-BJZxphdLAtT2oSyntSzthZPzKHEAXE&dib_tag=se&keywords=undercoat+rake+dog&qid=1718860338&sprefix=dog+rake%2Caps%2C80&sr=8-117 Then a slicker -  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Show-Tech-Transgroom-Tangles-Slicker/dp/B00TYEMXQC/ref=sr_1_60?crid=257IFM3R0MRB9&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.BA6hyzM_lA0P61Y47smzcbivKosuicT5uQU9mxKMTZeGWcZjntFoUZcJnx_QzAreCAl5Sf4kE08rhaOUpb6cwQd_77qUxcP17gUlPp6SLHkjWVR0AGlEh6ezchySJJvZssm7ieYnaT0XRvzaXx9v1SYQmBIeyIffgbrzP5WdJ-M7-zZcuhCtNVkQ3el7_au7JqikA9fglOhJjGehxuuWWpsF0hOhgcptFA_76xqCleRnNTdty0x45zlOO65MMnoSRMKMtA37NJTQdZWy1pyxdXJ7vOQAKV1l1ORoa_3hXwU.j8FwJyYxWEW6knCrt30-bbuCz-1cWtWLPlHIO7J4L0k&dib_tag=se&keywords=dog+slicker+brush+for+long+haired+dogs&qid=1718860468&sprefix=dog+slicker%2Caps%2C74&sr=8-60  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambuddy Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 Managing a Husky’s shedding can be a challenge, but the right tools make a big difference. A slicker brush is great for regular grooming, as it reaches the undercoat and removes loose fur. For heavy shedding periods, an undercoat rake or a de-shedding tool like the Furminator is highly effective in removing dead fur from the undercoat without damaging the topcoat.

robke Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 Just one bit from me forget the furminator…it totally destroys the top coat it is no good for double coated dogs..yes it get the job done quick but they are actually sharp blades that even cut healthy hair the ones you do not want off… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambuddy Posted Monday at 03:57 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 03:57 AM Yeah You're right in that case, some de-shedding tools like the Furminator can be too harsh for double-coated breeds. In that case, sticking to tools like an undercoat rake and a slicker brush is a safe option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
