FURminator Curry Comb with Rubber Teeth for Short and Medium Coats

Product Information

The Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Grooming Gloves are the best of the four styles we tested. I used these gloves on a Labrador retriever that isn't a big fan of being brushed. Not only did the gloves remove a lot of loose hair, but she lay down on her side and was happy for me to continue brushing all over her body. This extra blood flow is great for transporting nutrients to your dog’s skin that will keep it hydrated, supple, elastic and generally healthy. Brushing your dog’s coat has the wonderful secondary benefit of improving their skin health at the same time. By producing a massage-like effect, the brushing helps to promote blood flow to the skin’s surface.

Andis Deshedding Tool: While this is another effective tool, the Furminator and Oster were both gentler and easier to use. These brushes are best for dogs with smooth or short coats. "I use a curry brush on short-haired dogs during or right after a bath," Edmond said. "I like to use it on dogs that are heavily shedding." The Furminator Undercoat Deshedding Tool landed in the top spot. I tested it on a Labrador retriever that sheds very heavily. The amount of hair I was able to remove from her coat was astonishing. It was far more than I could remove with the three other deshedding tools I tested. Of course, brushing will also remove dead skin, which reduces irritation and keeps the coat looking smooth and silky.Pros: Made for pets with sensitive skin, angled stainless steel bristles minimize irritation, rubberized grips and curved handle provide comfort and control Kong ZoomGroom: This curry brush is soft and flexible with a cute design, but it just didn't beat out the other curry brushes I tested.

This type of brush, which is also called a curry comb, is made of rubber or soft plastic. It has flexible nubs that remove dirt and loose hair from the coat. Curry brushes are also great in the bath when used to work shampoo deep into the coat, all while giving your dog a nice massage. We really like the Groomer's Best Combo Brush from Hartz. It's great for dogs of many coat types and convenient if you have two dogs with different types of hair. I tested this brush on a miniature poodle and a Labrador retriever. Only the pin brush side was useful for the poodle coat, but the Labrador coat benefited from both sides. And once you have completed all of your brushing, you can get the dust off and add a shine by using a rub rag. It has been my experience that any soft rag or towel can be used as a final rub rag. And what I like to do is take my old towels and washcloths and use them as rub rags for my horses. It is an affordable alternative to buying “real” rub rags, and they work just as good. Brushes Need Care Too Even if you don't have a Dally like Wiley and his phenomenal heart-shaped nose, there's usually not much you need to do beyond basic grooming to keep your Dalmatian's coat in super shape! And while a Dalmatian-styled faux-fur coat is occasionally all the rage —on the silver screen or at a party —the look sits quite nicely at all times on this breed and does so with basically no clipping, cutting, or styling.

Boasts a luxurious new, soft-touch plastic grip, to allow for effortless grooming.” A curry comb is a brush that every horse owner has seen, and probably uses. In fact the curry comb is the first brush I use when I’m grooming, and I continue using it through the entire grooming process. A curry comb can be made from metal, or hard rubber. I personally prefer the hard rubber style. And it helps to loosen up the dirt and dander of the horses coat while distributing the deep down natural oils of his skin, beneath the coat of hair.A curry comb is one of the best tools to really get a glowing and shiny coat on your horse, even in the wintertime! The rubber is usually gentle enough to give a massage as well as distributing the oils of the coat, this is what gives you that shine. This is why I always start with the curry comb when I’m grooming my horses. Since Dalmatians spend as much (or more) time on their feet as any breed, caring for their paws is important. Here are some tips for keeping your spotted canine friend's paws in good shape (and it's recommended that you start performing this care when the dog is a puppy, if possible, so it can get used to the process): My horses LOVE to have their faces brushed with the super soft brush. It must feel good, because when we get to this part of the grooming session, they always lower their heads and close their eyes. They love having their faces brushed with a super soft brush! And I did get this brush in one of my Saddle Box subscription boxes, and I couldn’t be happier!

Grooming gloves are great for shedding dogs that run away when you bring out the brush. They allow you to brush your dog by petting them, and most dogs love the soothing massage this provides. The rubber grips on the palm and fingers are good for removing loose hair. A finishing brush is just what it’s name implies, the finishing of your grooming. The bristles are super soft, like a face brush, and are typically made from natural bristles. The soft bristles help the natural oils to glide along the coat, and smooth everything out. The finishing brush also removes any traces of dust that may have accumulated after you have finished your brushing. Rub Rag Roma® Brights Curry Comb–“Affordable and practical, the Roma Brights Curry Comb is a vibrant grooming tool, available in an exciting selection of colours that will brighten up any grooming kit! Colour choices include aqua, hot pink, lime green, and orange.”Overall, Dalmatian grooming is a relatively easy task. This breed's short coat does shed a lot, so frequent brushing (3-4 times per week) will be necessary, but since Dalmatians are fond of cleaning themselves (and have little to no "doggy odor"), baths are only needed occasionally. This can be crucial since, like may dog breeds, there are some skin conditions that affect staffies. Keeping an eye on the skin will help you to manage these problems should they arise. To answer the first part of that question simply, Yes! Yes, you should brush a staffy. Here's a list of some good reasons why you should brush your staffy:
