‘Shark Tank’ Product of the Day: Shed Defender could be the best way to keep Fido clean and your house fur-free
We love our pets and unarguably so, but if there’s one thing we all can agree on, is that the cleaning routine that comes with it is very tiresome. Now, with your pets spending most of their times indoors, the workload is perhaps double. All the brushing, sweeping, vacuuming, and dusting, every single day (sometimes multiples times a day), can take a toll.
Here’s a product all dog parents might like to try - Shed Defender onesies. This might just be a perfect and most practical solution that shedding nightmare.
Founded by Tyson Walters, Shed Defender makes protective onesies for your dogs that helps prevent the hair from spreading all over your upholstery, beds, cars or anywhere you don’t want dirt, dander and allergens. Tyson came up with this idea when he found his pet St. Bernard’s hair all over his car and despite hunting everywhere, he couldn’t find a way to solve this. He then pitched the idea on Shark Tank Season 10.
What is Shed Defender?
Shed Defender primarily works for stopping the spread of hair and fur. This also works for their time in the backyard or outdoors where they can catch germs and bring them back home. But on a secondary level, it also helps dogs with allergies or other skin conditions and even helps fight anxieties.
How does it work?
The Shed Defender onesies are made with Reco-Tex fabrics, which are environment and pet-friendly. Fitted with easy zipper, you can put them on your dogs like you would any other outfits and they can easily move around in the flexible fabric. The outfit also helps during a skin condition or any injury, and can easily replace the typical plastic cone, which, needless to say, every dog hates. However, the onesies are not for continuous use and brushing your dog is still essential as per your daily routine.
What’s in it for you?
Made with recycled plastic water bottles, Reco Tex fabric is a blend of polyester and spandex and thus strong enough to withstand wear and tear from constant running around and playful activities. At the same time, the hypoallergenic material is light and breathable, preventing from overheating their skin. The outfits are great to be worn at home, outdoors, in the car or for special occasions, where you want your canine buddy to have fun but not make a mess.
The Shed Defender onesies for dogs come in three variants- Original, Sport and Winter Fleece in six, two, and one color options respectively. The original is for regular use, Sport works best for outdoors and high-energy activities like running, hiking, etc. and the Winter Fleece are best suited for the cold weather. You can also choose the right size for your pet from the size chart available on the website.
How much does it cost?
The prices of these outfits range from $39.99 to $54.99, depending on type and color.
Where can I buy?
Shed Defenders are available on the brand’s website with different payment options and exciting discounts. You can also order online from Amazon.com.
