Furminator - Which One?

[MrsMozart]

Looked on Amazon after being reminded of these wonderful wee beasties

What's the difference between the large dog one and the equine one, other than about twenty quid?

Anyone use the large dog one on a horse?

Any make to go for over another?

Ta folks

I haven't seen either in the flesh so not sure - can you not see a difference amazon? Perhaps google the ferminator manufacturers and they might have something to say?

I love ferminators!!!!

I use the large dog one on my horse and it's very effective, however can't comment on the difference as never had the horse one
N&F

I use the large dog one on the horses, can't see what the difference would be other than twenty quid like you say! It does the job!

 

[Nicnac]

I use large dog one on dogs and horses Very effective (use on manes and tails too)

Never used the equine one so can't comment.

 

[MrsMozart]

The equine one looks to have a slightly longer head, but wondering if that's really worth the extra...

Good thinking . I'll ask the furry people

Absolutely. They don't do any damage to the coat, but they get more out than anything else I've tried.

I have one of these, which I believe is a cheaper copy of the furminator. I find that it's brilliant at removing hair, and the horses love it too!

I use a large dog one (bought very cheaply in TKMaxx ). I have a very large horse too, and it's fine, size wise.

 

[Fjord]

I use the large dog one and also have a cat one for face and legs.

I use the large dog one and also have a cat one for face and legs.

I do the same!

I won the cat one (with the pressy button fur remover thing) at the British Small Animal Vets Association.... and I don't own a cat... so, yeah

 

[MrsMozart]

Thank you folks

I saw a good priced large dog one, so went for it

I'll let you know how it goes!

 

[shetlandponylover]

Please do would love to know if it does work!! X

 

[Ashgrove]

I use a large dog one to keep everyone neat, my Shetland X loves it

 

[vigoureux]

I just brought one of viovet for £29.96 and free delivery, an equine one.. Is that a good price? I had never heard of one before, so thought I'd give it a go, sick of getting covered in hair!

 

[9tails]

I have a large dog one (yellow) and an equine one (green). The only difference is the length of head. I also have a cat one (purple). I'm a Furminator fan, can you tell?

 

[Adopter]

I have a large one for my border collie and makes a real difference on him, the cats like it as well when their coats are changing.

Really pleased to read that dog one works on ponies, because my two youngster are very full of thick winter coats that they are starting to shed, so will give it a try.

Thanks for information

Like the idea of using one on the ponio, however they are not so good for double coated northern breeds as it can break the fur.
