Yes, I also heard about the furminator. It is supposed to be really good.
One of my puppy buyers bought one and just loves it.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: grooming
I have two bitches with *extremely* plush coats. Not real long guard
hairs, but
rather super thick undercoats. (When parting the hair, it's tough to
see
skin.) When they blow coat, I can barely get a rake through the
coat. It is
actually impossible to get a rake through some areas and I end up
"plucking" the undercoat as it surfaces. This takes forever!
If anyone knows a "trick" for grooming such plush-coated dogs,
I'd love to hear about it. (Bathing and blow drying are out for right
now.)
Thanks in advance.

Paulette,
Both Forest and Tabu are VERY plush-coated. I like using a metal comb
with them. You can get a lot more hair out that way than by using any
kind of a brush. Other people say that the "furminator" (is that the
name?) pulls out the whole undercoat by just brushing the dogs once.
