I have a seven-year-old golden doodle, whose hair had grown quite long because my groomer for the last seven years had moved out of state and I had not found a suitable replacement. I had some experience in grooming her from time to time, but never liked it because I was a mess afterward and during the winter months, I would never even attempt to groom her indoors because the hair would be everywhere.. I recently ran into a neighborhood dog owner who had a smaller golden doodle who is nicely groomed and she told me about Furme. There are many other brands on the market however, since I had seen the results of the Furme groom on her dog, I chose to buy it. It is easy to assemble. It is quiet and is quite amazing on how it really does vacuum all the hair as you are cutting. I was concerned about the clipper blade not being as good as my other professional brand clippers so I was sure to bathe and brush my dog well before I began clipping her. Yes, it is not as smooth as my other clippers, but it’s pretty darn close when I was finished there was absolutely no hair on me. I emptied the canister four times during her groom because her hair had grown quite long, but it is so easy to empty and literally takes 10 seconds. I highly recommend this product. It is truly a game changer.
