I got one of these a few months ago and it's great for getting twigs and leaves out of medium length thick fur. It gets all the loose fur out as well.

Hi Irish Girl 123, the bluecherry74 sugestion is good....but you should start to take her to a professional groomer to get used to, the tools they use is always better then the one we can use at home, specially about open the hair and avoid matt.
I have one st. bernard 5 months and he used to be groomed once a month, then I can keep his hair in good condition and his skin far away from skin problems.
