I have a brush like this I got from the hardware store I work at. I didn't have any faith in it at first, but it works wonders.
The wires can be sharp, though. Do not clean it with your fingers, I cut my thumb that way. It's like a slightly deeper paper cut, but still.

Hi there. I'm not sure if it is the same for all breeds. I had a Pyrenees and we had two mats saved out and that never grew back. There was a lot of debate about it when I was looking if it grew back or not for pyrs. Some said theirs grew back just fine others said it never grows back at all.
I do know that the furminator is damaging to the top coat regardless of it growing back or not. I never recommend it for any dog with two coats, but if the dog has only one then I think it's a fantastic tool.
I linked to what I used in my last comment, it worked great was durable, survived my pup chewing on it for a few minutes too.
I'm told that slicker brushes work great for removing undercoats, stainless steel combs too, my groomer used a combination of tools for my pup.
Here's links to what they used

I thought it was a lot of different tools myself, but it's hard to argue the results because he came out looking fantastic Everytime.
I removed the undercoat myself, which the two ladies really appreciated, with just the comb but never made him look as good as they did.
She could possibly be itchy. See if you can part the hair enough to look at her skin and watch for redness/flakes.
I find that collies and Shetland sheepdogs in particular aren’t always the biggest fans of being brushed. They have very dense coats that can be a lot to maintain.
A rake is not a bad tool at all but I find that a lot of dogs don’t like it as much as a normal slicker brush and metal comb. So maybe try using these interchangeably.
