  1. First aid

    Made Apr 28, 2012, sent to the company May 7, 2012, published by CPSC May 29, 2012

    The product, in the report: This is a SHED Pal. It is called the “Incredible Cordless Pet Vac!” as seen on TV. It’s about 6”x2” and grey with a black top and a small grey (all plastic) “hair collection canister”

    Hi there. I ordered a “ShedPal”to groom my Olde English Bulldog. I also bought one from “PetSmart”, and returned because I received my ShedPal order in the mail. SO- these are popular and on the shelves at many pet stores. Regardless, I began to groom him with this battery operated handheld dog/cat/animal grooming tool. He seemed to be okay (besides the normal squirming associated with grooming him) when he, all of the sudden, jumped back 6feet darting into the wall because he got scared of the ShedPal around his (button like) tail area. After seeing this odd behavior I decided to take a better look at the ShedPal to see how it works...

    That’s when I saw it has a spinning ball type mechanism in the groomer machine that will burn/possible maim a human finger. This leads me to believe (because it was so easy to burn my own finger on this spinning ball that’s not covered by anything what-so-ever), that is burned my dogs little button tail as well when I was grooming him. I am a young adult in my 20’s, but I seriously worry about all of the (possible elderly, because they sell these things through an 888 phone #) people ordering this product that maybe can’t see as well... It just seems very dangerous to me, and could hurt a human OR animal. If someone were to try to groom their cat, or long hair dog, I don’t see how the hair doesn’t get caught and tangled and ripped out too...?! A small dog or cat could be easily injured by this tool, or a child, or adult...

    Please do something about this...?! thank you!!!
