"This is the second one of these brushes that I’ve ordered and I really love them. I have a Havanese who has long hair but sometimes gets a little knotted.

"I was pointed to this brush by one of your customer service representatives. The metal bristles are too far apart and did not give either of my dogs a good brushing. There should be a listing that this is a brush for thicker coats and not the pets with medium fur coats."

This brush is easier to use but is not likely to last long. if you are looking for a soft and durable brush, this won't disappoint you.
