Self-Cleaning Slicker Brush

A slicker brush is a regular part of grooming for dogs, cats, rabbits and other furry small animals, and this one saves time at the end of a session. A release button pushes the collected hair off the pins in one click, so you do not need to pick it out strand by strand. The pins are 304 stainless steel and the body is ABS plastic.

The handle is ergonomic and non-slip, which helps when you brush for a while or your pet wriggles. Choose blue or pink; both are the same brush. Work gently, in the direction the coat grows, using light strokes. Go over mats slowly rather than pulling, and stop if your pet shows discomfort or you reach skin that looks sore.

A weekly or twice-weekly session suits many coats, though the right schedule depends on your pet. After brushing, press the button to release the hair and put it in the trash. Wipe the pins and body with a damp cloth and let them dry before storing. Replace the brush if the pins bend or loosen. Each order includes one brush.
