I've had rather mixed results with the Fuminator. On the dogs it works well one, it does indeed work very well. But on some dogs it doesn't seem to work as well as a regular slicker brush. And I have yet to determine exactly why that is.
I have a customer with two pugs. On one of them, the Furminator gets out buckets of hair. On the other one, we just use the slicker brush, because the Furminator doesn't do much of anything. Go figure. 
I used it on my broken-coat JRT's the other day, and wow ... it was basically like hand-stripping them. If I would have wanted to, I would have had smooth coats in about ten minutes.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
