De-shedding treatments for double-coated dogs

A proper de-shed bath and high-velocity blow-out clears the loose undercoat that brushing at home leaves behind — far less hair around the house for weeks afterwards.

What's involved

  • Deep bath, conditioning treatment, high-velocity dry and thorough undercoat rake out.
  • Ideal for labradors, German shepherds, huskies, malamutes, collies and shepherd crosses.
  • We never shave a double coat — it damages the coat's ability to insulate and regrow properly.
  • Two or three treatments a year around the seasonal moults makes the biggest difference.

Common questions

Will it stop shedding completely?

No — shedding is normal. It removes the loose undercoat in one go, so you get weeks of relief instead of daily hair everywhere.

Should I shave my husky in summer?

No. A double coat insulates against heat as well as cold. De-shedding is the correct summer treatment.

How long does it take?

Between 45 minutes and two hours depending on size and coat condition.
