Yay for rakes!
I love mine, too. So does Blizzard!
In fact, yesterday she got a little ticked that I was using a smaller version on the Pom I'm fostering.
I was kind of surprised that this Pom's coat was JUST like a Pyr's! Thick matted-up undercoat, nice straight water resistant top coat!
Anyway, I pulled out this smaller rake to work through the undercoat mats and strip away the thicker winter coat that was so clumped up to shed. I had the little guy on a newpapered covered coffee table and Blizzard comes in, sits down and makes that low, long grumbling sigh. My husband cracked up. But, after awhile her pride must have gotten in the way, because she got up and walked off, giving me one last sigh as she looked over her shoulder and went down the hall. Guess she got tired of waiting in line.
I'm very lucky she loves to be brushed so much. She'll just sit there, on the newpaper I place on the floor, and let me brush her. I love gooming dogs. It's so relaxing plus, they look so pretty once you're done.
Oh, and as for blowing coats... I found it so much easyer to just keep regular grooming. Dosn't seem as bad or as much trouble. Either she dosn't blow that much of her coat, or I've become to used to it that it's nothing and no big deal, now.
