From the manufacturer


The FURminator(R) line of trusted, high-quality grooming combs provides a gentle, effective solution for the grooming process. Combing a pet's coat extracts any debris left over from brushing and removes small surface mats and tangles with minimal tugging, keeping fur clean and healthy.

FURminator(R) Curry Comb

A well-groomed pet is a happy, healthy pet. But, there are many reasons that frequent visits to your pet stylist aren’t always possible. With FURminator(R)’s line of professional quality grooming tools, you can achieve professional results in your own home. As industry innovators and experts on pet hair, FURminator(R) understands the entire shedding cycle and the role that hair care and hygiene play in helping to reduce shedding and make you and your pet happy. For that reason, FURminator(R) developed a high-performance line of hair-care, nail, hygiene, and waterless products. The FURminator(R) Curry Comb

  • Removes dust and loose hair from your pet
  • Features molded rubber teeth to stimulate the production of natural oils to promote coat health
  • Ideal for shrot and meidum coats
  • Ergonomic handle is secure and comfortable in your hand

Instructions for Use:

With any comb, use short smooth strokes in the direction of hair growth. Start with the head and work your way to the tail. Pay special attention to the areas behind the ears and underneath the legs where matting is more likely to occur.

1. Before using a FURminator(R) Professional Grooming Tool, perform a complete physical inspection of your pet. Look for sores, bruises and skin conditions, which may be concealed by his coat. If your pet has any of these conditions, seek treatment from a veterinarian before brushing.

2. The FURminator(R) Curry Comb is gentle enough to use even on sensitive skin dogs. Use the tool for a few minutes each session to remove excess hair and debris, break up mats, tangles and help keep your pet looking his best.

Finally Her Hair is Coming Off
4 out of 5 stars
Finally Her Hair is Coming Off
20200514: This remains my go-to brush for the porcupine dog. Her hair is like the top coat of a labrador - kind of soft, kind of stiff, and she has no undercoat. No other brush gets the hair off. I can brush her straight or I can use it like a true curry comb and go in circles - doesn't matter, the hair falls off. It works magic on my triple-coated pup, and the medium-haired cat, too. I used to use a shedding blade on both of them, but this is gentler and they tolerate it for far longer. I only wish that darn strap was adjustable. Works left or right-handed.I think perhaps folks who are complaining aren't realizing where the hair is going. I have three dogs: Dachshund, Boxer mix, Husky / Spitz mix and feel I can give a wide spectrum review due to the disparity of coats they have.The Boxer mix (50% Golden Retriever, 25% Boxer, 25% American Staffordshire Terrier, but her hair is nothing like a Golden (her personality is, though, woot!), more like a Lab so we'll go with Boxer): Her hair doesn't come off with a pin brush, bristle brush, or shedding blade. She has no real undercoat to speak of like a Lab would, just that coarse long top coat. Curry comb is the Only thing that takes hair off of her, But . . . her hair doesn't stick to the comb so it didn't seem to be doing anything. Until I looked at the ground. It falls to the ground like a rain of hair - think of a dried up Christmas tree when it's bumped, it practically explodes in a mess of needles. That's my Boxer mix. I can see the hair pouring off her when I brush her. As further proof the thing does its job, I used to have to sweep daily and would get a handful of hair. Now that I brush her 5 -10 minutes daily I sweep up less than a handful weekly. That's not to mention the hair no longer polluting my couch, her beds, or our bed! I will absolutely spend 5 - 10 minutes each day brushing her out if it means no more clogged washing machine filter and less sweeping. So while I'm not saving much time, I get to bond more with my pup instead of sweeping. I'll gladly take that trade.The Dachshund (100% mini pain-in-the-a$$, er, Dachshund): Her hair doesn't fall off and it barely attaches to the brush. Instead it piles up neatly on her body. This is pretty cool because IL can see how much hair is coming off of her and then I can scoop it off of her and toss it outside for the birds to use in their nests. She's 9 lbs and the picture is of the hair I got off her in less than 2 minutes of brushing slowly. That's an impressive pile for so little time from such a small body. She's arthritic so I have to be gentle with her, yet I had good success in shedding her coat. This worked better than the deshedding tool.The Husky / Spitz mix (he's 25% Husky, 50% German Spitz, 25% Cocker Spaniel watered down with goodnes-knows-what, but the Husky / Spitz coat around his mantle is apparent; therefore for the purpose of this review, he's a Husky / Spitz mix): This dude does best with the shedding blade - I'm talking tufts of hair flying up in the wind like a pillow was opened up and shaken out. The shedding blade is my preferred method for him; however, the curry comb is a nice finisher to smooth his coat and smear that oil around so he's nice and shiny. I have a knock off of the FuRminator shedding tool as well, but the blade still wins. His hair sticks to the curry comb a little bit, but the comb is nowhere near as fast as the shedding blade for him. I just have to be careful not to shed him too much or he'll have bald spots. Did that once to my cat and it was pretty sad looking.To address the reviewer's complaint about the rubber separating form the comb - I call BS. That looks like a dog chewed on it. I tried to wedge my very thin fingernail between the rubber and the plastic and it was a no go. I tried to pry up the rubber with my fingers and it didn't budge. That rubber is on there to stay. Their dog either ate it or they got a defective comb.Pros:CompactTakes hair off an otherwise impossible to brush dogLightweightCons:The strap is tight - I can barely get my long slender lady fingers through the strapNormally I can find a few things to mention for cons, but I'm coming up empty with this product. Might other combs do a better job? Sure. Is this one worth a try? Yes.Dear FuRminator: if ever you discontinue this product due to negative reviews, please feel free to send the surplus supply to me.20190314 Update: Still loving it. It's intact and working Great. My dog sits still for me to brush / comb her with this even with squirrels twitching and frolicking 20 feet in front of her. It's a little tougher to use on my longer-haired dog and a shedding blade is more efficient for him; however, before the blade starts irritating him I can switch to the curry comb and get a little further in the grooming than I was able to before obtaining the comb.

    I received this Furminator curry comb today and it is AMAZING! My Chiweenie has short but, somewhat thick hair particularly on the scruff of her neck like most dogs. I knew the soft bristle brush and the rubber nubby glove I have were not getting all the hair off. Plus all the shedding she has been doing. She has always enjoyed being brushed but, she LOVES this curry comb! The amount of hair that came off was astonishing. When we were done she got the zoomies and was so happy! Best $9 bucks I have ever spent! Buy it you will not be disappointed!

    I have a sweet little girl who has a short single coat and sensitive skin. Soft bristle brushes haven’t given me the results I need and other deshedders are too harsh for her. This reminded me of the curry combs I grew up using on horses and that’s exactly how it works - not too hard, did a great job with the shedding, and my dog enjoyed the process. It fits comfortably in my palm and the strap fits 3 fingers, allowing the thumb and pinky to stabilize. Winner winner chicken dinner.

    20190314 Update: Still loving it. It's intact and working Great. My dog sits still for me to brush / comb her with this even with squirrels twitching and frolicking 20 feet in front of her. It's a little tougher to use on my longer-haired dog and a shedding blade is more efficient for him; however, before the blade starts irritating him I can switch to the curry comb and get a little further in the grooming than I was able to before obtaining the comb.

    If you buy this dog comb, you will never need to buy another one! It works fantastically and the prongs don’t band like they do on other ones. I love this dog comb.

    It works well enough for a quick brush to get the really loose stuff. It doesn't collect the fur or get down into it like a slicker brush.

    My 2 Labrador Retrievers actually tolerate this. With other brushes and deshedding tools, they let me get 2 strokes in and then their back muscles wrinkle and they run away. They've only responded well to an old '90s brush and to this curry comb.

    The comb gets a surprising amount of hair off of my dogs, especially the male with the plush coat! It works very quickly and leaves them looking lustrous!

    I have very small hands, even for a woman, so the comb fits me perfectly, but I know my dad's hands would absolutely not fit in the strap. However, I love that it's designed to be the shape of a computer mouse, so it fits in my hand nicely.

    Overall, this is one of the best grooming tools I've ever used, and my dogs actually let me brush them with it, so I'd say it's worth a try on dogs with shorter coats.

    Excellent quality, and good size (10" long in total, comb is 5"). The handle is solid and comfortable for hours of combing my three dogs.
