Your pet will probably love getting groomed if you use the proper brushes. Slicker, rakes, bristle, and pin brushes are the four main categories of pet brushes. Slicker brushes feature short, thin wires closely spaced on a level surface. They remove matting from pets with medium-to-long or curly coats.
Rakes are special brushes that go through a dog's thick hair and eliminate tangles and dead undercoats close to the animal's skin. They frequently have one or two lines of clustered pins and a razor-like shape. For short-haired, smooth-coated pets who shed regularly, bristle brushes are handy. Their dense natural bristle clusters can stimulate the skin while removing loose hair. Pin brushes resemble typical human brushes in appearance.
