The hair brush vibe
Chances are as the weather continues to get warmer, your dog will be shedding and shedding. And if you’re like this doggyvibe parent, you’ve tried grooming brushes galore. Doggyvibe tester Kasee, 13 and a Lab, has sat patiently while I have tried brushing her down. Over the years, we’ve tried so many brushes that we actually gave up on the brushing front and focused more on the sweeping of the hair. That was until we came across the FURminator. While we laughed at the name, we didn’t laugh at the effectiveness. This grooming brush is a miracle. It really works! Retailers can be found online under where to buy.
