If you own a Labrador, German Shepherd, Husky, or Golden Retriever, you’ll already know the struggle: dog hair everywhere. On your sofa, on your clothes, and probably floating in your morning coffee. Shedding is just part of life with these breeds, but with the right grooming routine, you can keep the fluff under control and your pup’s coat healthy.
Let’s break it down by breed and give you the tools to make shedding season a whole lot easier.
🐕 Labradors: The Year-Round Shedders
Labs have a double coat, which means they shed steadily all year and blow their coat in spring and autumn. Regular grooming is essential to keep the undercoat from taking over your home.
✅ Use the Groomi Deshedding Brush to remove up to 95% of loose hair.
✅ A quick brush a few times a week will save hours of hoovering.
🐺 German Shepherds: The Heavy Shedders
German Shepherd owners lovingly call their dogs “German Shedders” for a reason. With their thick double coat, they shed heavily.
✅ Brush daily during peak shedding season with the Groomi.
✅ Finish with a spritz of Doggy Deodoriser for a fresh, clean smell without over-bathing.
❄️ Huskies: The Seasonal Shedders
Huskies shed their undercoat twice a year in dramatic “coat blows.” Without regular grooming, clumps of fur can mat and cause skin irritation.
✅ Use the Groomi daily during coat blow season.
✅ Keep a lint roller handy (trust us).
🐕🦺 Golden Retrievers: The Fluffy Shedders
Goldies have long, dense fur that tangles easily. Their shedding is moderate but their grooming needs are higher.
✅ Brush weekly to keep the undercoat under control with a brush suitable for their coat length
✅ Use detangling products to prevent tangles and matting
