I swear by this one. The clicker is amazing because the bristles go away and you just take the hair and mattes off the brush. Bought mine three years ago and it works amazing to this day.
Once every two-three months. Professional furminate once a year. Keep the bib long.
Plastic letter openers to slice and loosen mats.

I also have amazon’s knockoff of the furminator, but I’ve used it more on my carpet to get out fur the my old vacuum couldn’t pull than I have on my Shiba. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M5DS0Z7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_GberDb8VH8NMN
