Is that actually shaving, or just combing out loose fur?

Brushing out the undercoat

u/zuzg 4d ago

Iirc those brushes are called Equigroomer and are apparently also quite useful for de-shedding dogs and cats.

To save yourself some money, I highly recommend getting one of those multi use hair removers for clothes. I have one and it's great. No more wasteful sticky rolls.

u/MulishaMember 4d ago

Oh yeah we have one. And a robot vacuum. And a Dyson-mounted undercoat brush. There is no end to the coat blow out.

u/TheMouseIsBack 4d ago

I feel that. I've got a 65lbs German Shepherd mix, a 20lbs rat terrier mix, and an 11lbs long haired cat. It's chaos in here. Even my poor robot vacuum struggles sometimes.

My corgi is currently shedding her winter coat. I've never been more happy to not have an apartment with carpeted floors.

19

u/SvenTurb01 4d ago

😂 we have 2 Leonbergers(3 for a long while), even without carpeted floors, we still have carpeted floors. And corners of doorways/rooms. And furniture. And all coats are furcoats.

On the flipside we likely sponsored insulation to a very high number of birdsnests in the surrounding area when they get groomed, its like a birdparty on the lawn.

Typing all this out makes me realize how lucky they are to be as sweet as they are.

8

u/Smart_Zucchini2302 4d ago

Oooh, you are so lucky though. We have a couple of (certified therapy) Leonbergers that come to our library for a Reading to Dogs program. They are the absolute best! The kids adore them. They just patiently lay like beautiful footstools, let the kids lean on them while they read. The idea is getting the kids to read aloud to a nonjudgmental friendly Beastie will let them get more confident in their reading. Both owners mentioned how hard it was to get them certified because they'd rather lie down than go through the paces and show how good they are. (My little dog was too friendly with other dogs to pass, she couldn't resist saying hi. Not a bad trait, but not good if there's a group of dogs for therapy.)

Any particular brand you use? I have 2 that are fur producing machines.

u/AxiosKatama 4d ago

Have you used a furminator? Any insight on how they compare?

11

u/daffydubs 4d ago

I don’t like the furminator personally, as it seems really aggressive and can upset my dogs skin. Also, last time we tried, it took a lot of his top coat off as well. I much prefer the brushes like in OPs video and he does as well.

9

u/CorporateCollects 4d ago

Sleek EZ (second brush in the video) kicks the shit out of the Furminator.

Furminator tore up the top coat of our Shiba and got less hair, if you furminate the same spot a lot it will literally cut all their hair off.

Sleek EZ leaves her coat nice and smooth and you can just brush and brush and brush and get piles of undercoat.

6

u/Pierresauce 4d ago

To be fair, the furminator instructions specifically say not to do that. You're supposed to brush from head to tail in long, single passes.

7

u/CorporateCollects 4d ago

It's about the reason WHY you're not supposed to. Because it cuts hair.

Horse type deshedders are simply gentler on the topcoat and often pull more hair because you can go at the same spot.

Grew up on a farm with livestock. We called them curry combs. No idea why. Cool to know the "real" term.

u/orthopod 4d ago

Curry comb is the correct name for them. Equigroomer if just a brand name.

13

u/mynameisstryker 4d ago

Ah, I will continue calling them curry combs then.

9

u/midgettme 4d ago

Technically… that’s a shedding blade or shedding comb. A curry comb is like.. two or three circles of metal with spikes on a handle. It looks like a shedding blade but an “O” inside of an “O” etc. Combs also come in rubber.

Combs are for grooming/loosening/ massaging where shedding blades are for actual removal of hair and mud.

I was just about to comment that this makes me want to get an equigroomer for my cats

4

u/GoldenFalcon 4d ago

The regular ones from pet stores I've always gotten for my cats have been crap. They are like 2 inches wide and the fur sticks to the comb. I think I want one of these instead. I haven't looked at cost yet though, and since they are for horses, I'm gonna assume they are soooo expensive. But I really do wish the one for my cat was more effective.

7

u/Brock_Lobstweiler 4d ago

Both sleek ez (the second tool in this video) and equigroomer make small 2" deshedding tools for small dogs and cats. I got one for my mom's elderly cat that can't grin herself well anymore and it's amazing. Doesn't pull live hair like the furminator and is easy to use. Cat much prefers it too. They're around $20 on Amazon.

2

u/Nervous-Babbs 4d ago

I think they are on Amazon under the brand name equigroom they are actually sold by the company that makes them just make sure it's the actual company because there's a bunch of knockoffs also

This is just a type of brush, no shaving going on. The horse is shedding their winter coat, and so brushing will help them get rid of it faster.

These are just lose hairs. No cutting or ripping going on. This is the type of brush being used

Hah, from my younger memories working with horses on trail rides, and leading them around for riders. "Horse Shaved Ice" would taste like musk, urine, and sweat. Oh and the flavor of half digested grass"poop", but maybe some nice leather undertones mixed in. I will say the only bad smell, to me, was the urine. I am in the midwest so of all the poop smells, horses are the "most pleasant"

Body clipping a horse is basically just like a big dog. You can use heavy duty wahl trimmers or something similar. Do it at the end of the day though, you’ll be miserably itchy until you get out of those clothes and showered.

u/MaiaNyx 4d ago

This was one of my favorite things to do when I was younger volunteering at a horse ranch.... Basically I did chores and got to ride and go to camps for free.

The horses loved it. They'd all be at their stall doors, or staring at me from the outdoor pens, chuffing and snorting and stomping waiting their turn. They knew it meant relief. And then they'd get zoomies.

Except Blaze. He'd just stand in the sun to show off his new shiny coat and try to get everyone to come look.

107

u/Rollover_Hazard 4d ago

Blaze is just the best name for a horse!

19

u/JayteeFromXbox 4d ago

It's great but it's kind of lazy when one of the marks that can be identified for registration (if your horse can be registered as a quarter horse, thoroughbred, Arabian, etc) is literally called a Blaze. It's sort of like naming a kid with a moon shaped birthmark "Luna."

16

u/MaiaNyx 4d ago

Oh for sure. Owner had nearly 100 horses, 8 donkeys, 4 mules, and 2 draft mules while I was there, split between the main stables (held 20) and the much much larger mountain ranch. We had a Blaze, Spot, Socks, Caballo (literally just "horse" in Spanish), Brownie, Star, Smith, Mister, Lady, Champ, etc etc etc. Hard to be too creative with so many charges to care for!

3

u/JayteeFromXbox 4d ago

True, my family only had about 30 head on the farm, but most of them ended up with names like Duke, Chester, Rosa, Deuce, Fraser, Pepsi (my sister named her), Tipsy, Misty, etc. I don't think we used any super horse related terms, but I'm sure if we kept going up to 100 things would've started overlapping or we would just forget names lol

2

u/MaiaNyx 4d ago

We had a Duke, Impressa, Sugar, Tawny, Daisy (my best girl, one of the draft mules), Dexter, Annabelle, Sesame, Apple, Dumpling.... So there were some more thoughtful names. But we did also have lots with human names... Bob, Fred, Sally, Susie, etc.

I was glad that most of the year I only needed to handle 20 or so, packing them up and going to the mountain ranch in the summer was a whole other task!!

Shout to the mountain nursery herd donkeys though, those asses had two mountain lion kills!

3

u/JayteeFromXbox 4d ago

Animals with human names are the best. Maybe it's just me, but it feels easier to tell them about your troubles when they have a name like a person. I'm loving all these horse names but none of them have topped my dad's friend's Belgian/Quarter Horse named Pilgrim. He was one of the most beautiful horses I've ever seen; Tall, strong, and majestic. And then he'd run and just looked so damn awkward! It was the best!

Haha, as I watched this all I could think of is I really want to do this, not as a job and I don't really have interest in owning a horse so yes more like a bucket list item.

23

u/Nicky1098765 4d ago

It's more about picking the right time of year to do it. Even well groomed horses will have a couple of weeks coming into spring where they shed a lot. Bonus points if you can find some hairy muddy field ponies though!

For one thing that’s gotta feel great for the horse. So many various levels of coarse brushing = one big back scratch.

They would get too hot in the summer in that fur coat so their body naturally begins letting all that thick fuzzy hair go once nights get shorter and days get warmer. The hair coming out in this video has likely already fallen out and this tool is just removing those loose hairs.

They’re like other mammals that way. Grow thick coats during the winter and shed them during the summer. Granted, species and breeding still has a part as always.

Would using a horse hair brush made with this hair be considered vegan friendly? I mean the hair is just falling off the horse and it would eventually even without human intervention and I can speak from experience that horses find this to be extremely pleasurable. I drove my ex to her horse riding lessons a few times and horses would come running when the horse guy would bring the brush out and they'd almost trample each other trying to be first.

That looks like it must feel SO GOOD to those horses to get the loose hair out. 🥰

That is not shaving or currying, that's a water-slicker that is also used for de-shedding

Now I understand why they mixed horse hair into the walls of old homes. There’s a lot of hair!

u/DillionM 4d ago

Great video, it's only missing one thing. Where are the horses that are getting shaved?

u/Embarrassed-Pass-272 4d ago

Always satisfying to de-shed horses. The clean ups not so satisfying.

u/Signal-Debate-6068 4d ago

u/bmg50barrett 4d ago

That's not shaving. That's just brushing. Groomers also do similar with cats and dogs.

u/IceFire2050 3d ago

They're not shaving them. They're pulling up loose fur from the undercoat.

I have something similar for my dog.

u/Taken_Bacon_06 3d ago

It’s not getting shaved, you can clearly see the hair isn’t getting any shorter.

This reminds me of scraping the “hair” out of artichoke heart.
