This is a tool with an edge rather than a brush, and that distinction is where the damage happens: pressing hard or working one area repeatedly cuts the topcoat, leaving a patchy finish that takes months to grow out.

| Specification | Greenies Original Regular Dental Dog Treats 36-Pack | FURminator Undercoat DeShedding Tool for Large Dogs |
|---|---|---|
| Price | ₹2,899 | ₹2,999 |
| Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty |
| Calories | About 90 kcal per treat for the regular size | not published |
| Correct breeds | not published | Double-coated shedding breeds -- Labradors, German Shepherds, Huskies, Indian Pariah dogs |
| Digestibility | Highly digestible, which matters because they are swallowed | not published |
| Frequency | not published | Once or twice weekly, briefly. Not daily |
| How it works | not published | A fine blade reaches through the topcoat and pulls loose undercoat out |
| Never on matted coat | not published | Mats must be worked out first |
| Over-use | not published | It has an edge. Pressing hard or working the same area repeatedly cuts the topcoat, which then looks patchy and takes months to recover |
| Size | Regular, for dogs 11 to 22 kg | not published |
| Texture | Deliberately chewy, so the tooth sinks in and the surface is wiped. A hard chew cleans less and risks fractured teeth | not published |
| Tooth fracture note | Very hard chews -- bones, antlers, hard nylon -- are a documented cause of slab fractures in dogs. A chew should flex under a thumbnail | not published |
| VOHC | Accepted for both plaque and tartar, where many chews are accepted for tartar only | not published |
| Wrong breeds | not published | Should not be used on single-coated or non-shedding breeds -- Poodles, Bichons, Shih Tzus and similar. There is no undercoat to remove and it simply cuts the coat |
