Harley, and I just couldn't control her shedding. No matter how much I brushed and groomed her, she still left tumbleweeds of hair in my house and even worse, in my car,"
"I looked around on the internet and dog stores and I couldn't find a solution to my problem. So, I decided to make one."

"It is made out of a lightweight, breathable, stretchy fabric (athletic mesh) that DOES NOT make the dog hot and allows full mobility as well," he told Mashable.
"The main critics are pet groomers who comment on Facebook, and have NEVER used the product. They think it doesn't allow the dog to shed, like it has some magical power, and that would be a huge problem for dogs," Walters said.
"That's not the case. It just contains the hair, very simple. They also think it will matte the hair and cause skin problems since the dog can't shed naturally. Once again, the dog still sheds, the hair won't get matted. We encourage customers who have long haired dogs to not use [the product] for prolonged amounts of time, i.e. days at a time, and then properly brush your dog afterwards."

Dr. Putter didn't feel comfortable evaluating the Shed Defender without checking out the physical product. He did say that he sees how it could have benefits in certain circumstances, such as travel. However, he doesn't think a dog should wear the garment for a long time, as he's fearful that it could make a dog overheat.
Walters, however, continued his defense.
"People also think it will overheat the dog and kill it. Lol. The material is just like Under Armour, and athletes don't overheat and die in their clothes," Walters told Mashable.
"And dogs release heat differently than humans do, they pant to release heat, as humans release heat through their body. With the breathable fabric it doesn't contain heat, allowing airflow."
