"I’m a dog groomer and I was looking for a new slicker and bought this based on good reviews. I unfortunately found it too stiff and harsh to use on the dogs coats that I groom."

Bottom Line

However, consider alternatives like the Evolution Self-Cleaning Dog Slicker Brush, which has received better reviews for similar functionality.
