1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Hi husky peeps! Does anyone have any advice on facilitating the coat blowing process? Currently using an undercoat rake along with a metal comb that has different length tines. Was wondering if the furminator stuff is worth it (I've heard very mixed reviews), including the de-shedding shampoo. Our groomer suggested a high velocity dryer but I'm not sure which to get. Any help or suggestions on this topic is appreciated! Thanks!!!

I have about 3 different brushes that I've used, one is a furminator. While it definitely takes out the undercoat, I found that my huskies didn't like it as much because it pulled more. I have two different styles of rakes that I use and they like. I have also noticed that the food I feed my huskies also makes a difference in their shedding. The more fishy it is the less they shed.

Many husky owner's swear by a high velocity dryer. I haven't tried, its a bit pricey for my budget.

This sort of thing:

Me and my furbabies prefer the Paws Pamper Undercoat Rake because it eliminates the loose hair without pulling out the actual coat and I like that it has rounded edges to prevent irritation. They act like it's a massage session, lol.

Welcome to the forum FURgirl....I agree a rake is superior for husky coats. I highly recommend NOT using a furminator, it pulls and cuts the coat.

After everything I've purchased for my dogs...this is the best. I've got the K9II with variable speed and it cuts down on a ton of brushing. My backyard is kind of small so I set up an EZ Up, close it off with towels, and let it rip. Keeps the raking and upset neighbors down to a minimum.

Investing in a high velocity dryer is totally worth it. I was skeptical, but now I don't know what we did without it.

I bought the Metrovac Air Force Commander (about $170) and I've used it on my pup every day for the past four years and the thing does.not.quit. It's amazing how much hair it gets out.

I'm in Florida, where we always have sudden rainstorms (and mud puddles) and it's so useful to get her dry quickly or to get off the dirt. It's helped keep our home cleaner and reduce the hair tumbleweeds.

It's seriously worth saving for!
