EquiGroomer 5 Inch – Great for Dogs and Cats (5 Inches, approx. 12.7 cm)

Product Information

Regular bathing keeps your dog’s body clean and comfortable! Be sure to bathe him for his breed and coat. After shampooing, thoroughly rinse and dry your dog. DO NOT rush brushing your dog especially if there are any mats, tangles or burrs to avoid unnecessary pain to your dog. Most grooming tools work by reaching down through the coat and pulling dead hair out from the base. With EquiGroomers coarse blade, it grabs the loose hair from the ends, so there’s no tugging or harm to the skin. This is especially important for sensitive-skinned animals. Use the EquiGroomer WaterWisk Pet Squeegee to ensure the removal of all excess soap and water from your dog’s coat. Remember, just like with humans, the skin is your dog’s largest organ and its health and condition are crucial to the overall well-being – and comfort – of your four-legged companion.

Dog Shedding Brush: Carding or Hand-Stripping | EquiGroomer

Gently brush away as much dirt, burrs, ice, salt, sand and chemicals inyour dog’s coat for a better bathing experience. So, does your dog need carding, hand-stripping, both or neither one? ( Hint: they are not the same thing.) Grease 2 cookie sheets. Using a spoon, make balls, about 2” wide and place on the greased cookie sheet. You can put them close together (but not touching) because they will not increase in size.Shape into balls of desired size or simply spoon into a dish to serve. May be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days or frozen. Carrots, apples and oats, oh my! What could be better for your horse than all his favorite foods in one treat?! Add some beneficial flax seed (high in Omega-3 fatty acids) for an irresistible treat that will also improve their coat! Not all dogs need to be hand-stripped, it is more about the type of coat than about the dog’s breed. Also, some coats will require just seasonal stripping, while others will need to be stripped more frequently.
