A fuminator is a special comb used on dogs, it can help with fur shedding and can be found in most pet shops. furminator is actually a brand name, they have several products, this is the one i usually recommend: http://www.furminator.com/products/brush/brushes-and-combs/adjustable-dematter-tool.aspx
