Sarah's Mum

So much info guys! Thank you very much although I'm now a bit confused, but then it doesn't take much to confuse me these days. I bought a Furminator just after I got this lovely girl because she shed so much & it is great at getting rid of a lot of hair & it really did help with the shedding but I don't like using it on her all the time as I've read quite a few reviews of how it strips the coat. I must admit, I bought a cheapie pair of clippers yesterday & gave her a light clip this afternoon after bathing her this morning which should keep her going until such time as I can get a proper dryer. I'll try the chamois idea tomorrow Mrs. Rusty Bucket. Good idea that one. Thank you all.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. Yes, I don't like her being damp for so long. Apart from becoming a bit pongy I have been very concerned about it leading to arthritis in years to come too & certainly don't want to add to that possibility for her. From your most welcome suggestions I think I'll try the undercoat rake & see what I can find in the way of a strong dryer. Once again, thank you all for your welcome responses.

Hi everyone, I have a female lab x. Crossed with what I have no idea but her coat is like a polar bear's coat. Not that it's long, it's the under layer that is the problem, it is really thick. We go to the beach every morning & she is washed down & dried with 2 human towels & then a microfibre towel by 10.30 am & she is still damp at 4.30 pm. 'm hoping someone could recommend some dog grooming clippers please? I would like to keep it at about $100 if that is possible? Any suggestions? By-the-way, my profile photo is not a photo of my current dog, that was my lovely girl Sarah who I lost last year. Thank you, Sarah's Mum
