Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is there a difference between human-hair clippers and animal-hair clippers?

A: Human-hair clippers and animal-hair clippers are different and shouldn’t be used interchangeably. Pet clippers come with extra speed options to trim different types of dog hair. They also have quieter motors for animals’ comfort. Additionally, dog clippers have wider teeth than human-hair clippers to prevent snarls and knots.

Q: What kind of brush is best for my dog?

A: The best brush for your dog depends on the length and texture of its fur. Bristle brushes have tight groups of soft synthetic bristles and work best for dogs with smooth hair. Short bristles are best for short hair, and long bristles work on long hair. Wire-pin brushes have short, flexible wires and work best on medium-length, long, curly and coarse fur. Slicker brushes use harder wires for loosening matted hair. Rakes, which have hard metal teeth, are for handling tangled undercoats. Curry brushes, which work best on short and medium-length hair, have soft silicone teeth. Deshedding brushes feature metal teeth that remove a dog’s undercoat.

Q: Should you brush a dog wet or dry?

A: It’s best to brush dogs when they’re dry, especially if they have medium-length or long, tangle-prone hair. Brush them regularly, as well as before and after baths, once their fur dries. Because wet fur can tangle and mat, be sure also to brush dogs after they dry off from swimming or being out in the rain.
