Hound Dog Dandelion Puller
The design concept is good but this tool needs some reconfiguration before it's truly effective.

1. The pulling tines should be a bit longer. (They aren't long enough to grab on and pull up the whole dandelion root, even in wet soil.)

2. The diameter of the base of the tines (where they are mounted) needs to be about 1/4 inch more. (Would give a better chance of grabbing onto the root as the exact center of a dandelion is sometimes hard to eyeball.)

3. Shaft of tool needs to be about 3 inches longer. (So the tool-user doesn't have to bend over so much to use this thing.)

This product delivers
If you have dandelions, this is the tool you need. We can dig up fifty dandelions in just a few minutes with ease. No bending or stooping. We have had a Weed Hound for several years, and recently bought two to give to give to family members. We highly recommend it.

Did not pull entire tap root
The Hound Dog would get the leaves and, if you aimed well, the top 1/2" of the tap root (Dandelion, russian thistle, burdock, etc). But it did not get the entire root, so the darn weed just keeps coming back.

I am still looking for a better weed puller, for now I'll contine to crawl around with my hand tools.

Does Not Get Root!
I have used this on dandelions and it does pull off the top of the weed that is above ground but it does not remove the root! Looks like I am back to old fashioned hand tool to remove root.
The product has nails at the end that close together in the ground. They should have spent 0.30 more on product and used longer nails.
Too bad design of the product doesnt allow me to substitute nails that actually might work removing the root.
Oh well. Return of product to store coming.

The weed hound is no dog!
I can't beleive the weedhound works so well, its well worth the money. It worked so well for me that I bought one for my father's birthday!
