Cut back the loose undercoat
Dog de-shedding in Fort Myers, with less hair at home.
De-shedding starts with a bath in a loosening shampoo and conditioner, then a high-velocity dryer blasts out dead undercoat. Labs, German shepherds, corgis and huskies are common candidates in Fort Myers, where air conditioning keeps them indoors shedding on floors and furniture.
What shapes a de-shedding bill.
The result is a lighter coat and a cleaner house for a few weeks, though it will not eliminate shedding.
- The thicker and longer the undercoat, the more labor the groomer puts in.
- Breed size matters, as a Great Pyrenees takes far more effort than a corgi.
- A bath, dry and rake session costs more than a brush-out alone.
- Shaving is not the same as de-shedding and can leave an uneven regrowth.
- Many owners book every two months and add one extra visit in the heaviest shedding weeks.
- Daily brushing at home keeps the results going longer.

Can I combine it with a haircut?

An undercoat rake or deshedding comb used lightly and often works well. Ask your groomer which one suits your dog.
