"This brush has worked well for our small cockapoo. He does not like to be brushed and this one is soft enough that he tolerates it."

— Sabryna

"He whines when I try to brush him with it. I don’t blame him, I ran it down my arm just to see what it felt like and it hurts. I don’t reccomend this brush for any dog."
