Wooden Slicker Brush
A slicker brush is a pet grooming tool which is designed to help remove mats while also helping to remove dead hair and gently stimulating the skin, removing layers of dead skin cells and promoting healthy circulation and coat. The tines of a slicker brushes are typically made from very thin metal wire, and they are mounted on a rubber mat, causing the brush to resemble a wire hairbrush. The soft mat of the brush ensures that the individual tines have some give, so that they will not hurt the animal as the brush is used. Simply run the brush over the coat of your pooch, working in the same direction as the hair grows. If you are using the brush to remove mats, use it slowly and start at the base of the mat to slowly detangle it, gently removing the dead and matted hair. If a mat is especially large or stubborn, attack it in several stages, as prolonged brushing can irritate the skin and pull out healthy hair, making the animal uncomfortable. Avoid using slicker brushes around the face as this is a sensitive area. Pull hair out of the slicker brush as you use it to keep it effective Available in three sizes Small (Small breeds) Medium (Medium breeds) Large (Large Breeds)
