What Is Undercoat Removal?

Undercoat removal, also known as deshedding, is a professional grooming treatment that targets the dense, soft layer of fur beneath your dog's topcoat. Double-coated breeds shed this undercoat continuously, and without regular removal it becomes trapped in the coat, leading to matting, skin irritation, overheating, and an overwhelming amount of fur on your furniture, floors, and clothing.

At The Platinum Pooch, undercoat removal is performed by Donna M. Walko, a Certified Veterinary Technician and master groomer with over 50 years of experience. Donna uses professional-grade tools and techniques to remove loose, trapped undercoat thoroughly and safely, without damaging the topcoat or irritating the skin beneath. The result is a dog who is more comfortable, better regulated, and significantly less likely to leave a trail of fur everywhere they go.

Does My Dog Need Undercoat Removal?

Undercoat removal is most beneficial for double-coated breeds, which include some of the most popular dogs around. If you have a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Labrador Retriever, Husky, Bernese Mountain Dog, Corgi, Chow Chow, Pomeranian, Shiba Inu, Australian Shepherd, or any other breed with a dense double coat, regular undercoat removal is an important part of their grooming routine.

Signs that your dog is overdue for a deshedding treatment include excessive shedding around the home, a coat that looks and feels unusually thick or puffy, difficulty keeping your dog cool in warmer months, and mats or tangles forming close to the skin. Even dogs who do not appear to be shedding heavily can benefit from regular undercoat removal, as trapped fur that has not yet fallen out can cause just as many problems as the fur you find on the couch.

More Than Just a Brush Out

There is a significant difference between a standard brush out and a professional undercoat removal treatment. A brush out addresses the surface of the coat. A proper deshedding treatment goes deep, removing loose fur from the undercoat layer that a regular brush simply cannot reach.

At The Platinum Pooch, our undercoat removal process includes a thorough pre-treatment bath with a deshedding shampoo and conditioner designed to loosen trapped fur, followed by a careful blow out and a detailed hand tool treatment to remove as much of the undercoat as possible. Donna's 50 plus years of experience means she knows exactly how to work through even the thickest, most heavily shedding coats without causing discomfort or damaging the protective topcoat your dog relies on.
