I giggle when I read "you'll see why the FURminator is so uniquely
effective, it received a utility patent from the United States
Patent and Trademark Office." Oh, yeah. That USPTO; if you can
get a patent from them you must really be on to something "uniquely
effective."

It sounds like the device is a combination of a rake and a blade.
I've found both very effective in brushing most of my dogs.

Her dog grooming customers were ecstatic, but Angie Porter's
hand was killing her. She was using the blade from her
clippers to pull away loose hair and undercoat, but the
makeshift tool was awkward and uncomfortable to use.

Here's the patent.
