Hi Everyone! Arlo here with a public safety announcement.
I know that furminators seem like the perfect solution for a dog that is awesome in every way, but sheds like a snowstorm. They can be, but I'm here to warn you they can be dangerous!
Last Sunday, my mom had decided that she had had enough of the springtime shed so she decided to bust out the furminator. She was brushing, and the hair was coming out, so she kept on brushing and brushing and it was working fine until she noticed that my neck was really red. She gasped in horror, immediately scooped me up and gave me a cool bath. When I was dry she put some cornstarch on me and the next morning everything looked ok. Little did she know. She noticed that I've been a little itchy this week, thinking since it's springtime and the grasses are flying, she gave me another bath and found the real reason I've been itchy. The stupid furminator gave me a hot spot!
