Paws Pamper Undercoat Rake for Small to Medium Dogs or Cats - 12 Blade Dematting Comb
Why should you use an undercoat rake?
If your are looking for a undercoat rake or shedding brush for your dog or cat, this will be the best investment you can make and many professional groomers will nod in agreement.
The stainless steel teeth easily remove loose, shedding hair from thick undercoats without painfully pulling or damaging your dog's sensitive skin. Unlike clipping, the PawsPamper undercoat rake only removes the dead hair from the coat which potentially cuts grooming time in half or quicker.
If you have a dog or cat that sheds a lot, it is important to note that they should not be shaved. Their undercoat serves as an insulation from both the heat and the cold, and if you shave them, you reduce their ability to regulate their own body temperature.
It is recommended that you groom these types of coats several times a week. You want to begin with a stainless steel coat stripper/undercoat rake for dogs or cats. This undercoat rake will help you remove the loose undercoat. You always want to brush in the direction the hair grows. If your dog has a long coat, you will need to separate the hair in order to get to the undercoat. Once you have removed the loose undercoat, you will want a slicker brush to go over the top of the coat.
