Get the Right Supplies to Groom a Shaggy-Haired Dog
You’re going to get a number 10 with either your Andice clippers or Oster and that’s the only 2; don’t let them sell you anything else. I don’t know if they are ever under $100 but most of your wholesale companies will sell to individuals so you don’t have to go. Don’t get any kind of brush but this one. It is universal, it’s rounded and the teeth are tight like I said a while ago. They are supposed to be. It’s like a 1,000 little fingers in here. You know. Like that. If you get a real soft brush which is whatever does including myself the first time cause I was afraid I would scratch them. You can’t brush them out right and then they will get matted. See that it looks a little tangled. See how that is pulling. You always want to hold her ear because their hair and skin is not like ours. Their skin, when you brush it, their skin comes with it. Here and here and ours doesn’t. Then after you think you’ve got them brushed out. I love this comb and you can get these at the kennel shop. They are $10. See how far apart those teeth are. Well if you can’t brush a tangle out just go ahead and you can break it down with this like that and then brush. This brush will be held so light. Let it do the work. Most of your dogs are smart enough they won’t get their eyes in it. Their tongue, yes. You got to watch the tongues.
