ABSOLUTLEY!!!!! These dryers blast away the dead and loose hair. The best way to help control alot of shedding is to furminate, wash and BLOWDRY!! I guarentee that you will notice a huge difference. Infact many of clients come to see me on a regular schedule for the shedding alone. With my Saint and HuskyX I take care of the seasonal coat blowing in a fraction of the time with the use of a high velocity dryer after a good brushing and a bath, and a good bath with a dry in between controls the dust bunnies that can happen in between the bigh blow outs.
