We have an Irish Doodle. She doesn't shed but she does mat. Will this work for that?

Yes I would think it would. It is Great stuff but Our Black Lab sheds so bad nothing really helps unfortunately

A lab has smooth, short hair. I have a mix between a lab and golden retriever and he sheds! :(

I have pugs, and it works great for the shedding. Not quite sure how long your dogs hair is, but I got the short for the pugs

No - I've got two mats and and a dog - they don't seem to to attract dog hair. Since my mats live in the kitchen and I am quite a messy cook, I spritz 409 type cleaner and scrub with an old sponge and they clean up very well. Very pleased with them, although I'll have to hide them during the holidays when my Dad comes to visit - he has a habit of tangling his feet in kitchen mats :)

We have a massive great Dane that sheds constantly. It doesn't pull as much hair as my Honeywell does but whenever she walks in the room it changes colors and boosts the output. So keeps it free of odors and small stuff but doesn't really get all the hair. But placement does matter!

I would think it would be just fine. I have a 12lb yorkie (female) and it works great for her. And you will love the neatness of it! My yorkie took to it very quick, she was already pad trained, but being how she was a puppy, she would pull the pad apart sometimes. The UGODOG was the answer for that problem. And it looks much better than a pad or paper on the floor. Just give it a few days and for training, and be sure to put it in the same spot you have always had his paper in. Good Luck!

I have a Cocker Spanial and it helps alot with her shedding you just have to clean rollers and empty catcher more often.

You need to turn mat off. It works very effectively for cats. No experience with dogs.

My doby boy by nature does not shed much at all. But besides having a wonderful smooth coat, it helps his overall well being, especially his digestive system.

I believe it would work well. I was just recently introduced to this brush and to a rake. I had previously used a Firmenator on our mini-aussie. There has been a great improvement in the texture of his coat since I started using the rake first and followed that by the slicker brush. It's easy to use, and my aussie stands still for it and seems to like it. I also use thinning shears on the hindquarters and tail, which gives a trim, but not close-cut look.

I have a Basett Hound who sheds quite a bit. Is this the product for me? I would use it on an everyday basis.Bill of Rhode Island

The animal has to lie directly on the mat as that is what triggers the gel to get cooler. I tried using a hand towel but could not feel any temperature change without the direct contact. If the cover is very thin then it might work but I would go with direct contact.

It's hard to tell if anyone has answered this question... she's asking if she can use the hand towel and the mat for downward dog without having to buy the full sized towel, she is not asking if she can use the hand towel without a mat. Can someone answer this please, as I am wondering the same thing

It might be kind of small for a dog that size. Even though the mat is 14x28 the part that heats up is much smaller inside the mat.

I don't know about cats but our dogs have long fur and an undercoat that can get pretty badly matted and that's what I use this for. I drench the mat with the D-Mat and rub it in good. After it sits for a minute or 2, I take a mat splitter and start working the mats out a little at a time, working from the ends up toward the skin. It still takes patience but before finding D-Mat, the only recourse was to cut the mat out, leaving a bare spot. It's not magic but if you're willing to take some time, it cuts the work in 1/2.

I have a German Shepherd and it works great. You just have to do it on a regular basis so the thick mat does not build up.

Yes. I have a chihuahua who does the same. Make sure you buy enough mats to cover the couch so there's no "pathways"/negative space allowing for those sneaky dogs to tiptoe to get to the back of the couch. They are crafty. The mats are highly effective!
