Highlighted Reviews

β€” Alana

"This brush goes through their hair better than any other brush we’ve used. Made them fluffy quickly!"

β€” Janelle

"Tilly hates this brush, it seems to hurt her, she growls at me when I try to brush her. I think the pins are too sharp and they her skin!! We are keeping her pretty short and this gets right to her skin!"

Bottom Line

This is a decent brush but you may want to go for a lighter model if your pet struggles with the pins. No suggestions above 3-4 pound dogs at this point.
