Dog Grooming Combs

Regular Dog Grooming Combs

If you have a small fluffy dog, for example a Shihtzu or a Shihtzu cross, then a comb can be a handy grooming tool to have. These little dogs have high maintenance coats and dog grooming is essential. They require regular brushing and combing. The easier way to maintain their coat is to clip it off regularly. By running the comb through the dog’s coat you will be able to tell whether the coat is starting to matt up as the teeth will get caught up in the knots. Find the most suitable comb for your dog by determining the size of the dog and thickness of coat.  Combs are not an expensive item to purchase and you can get good quality combs at discounted prices at Pets Warehouse, suitable for every need.

Whether you are a professional groomer, want your dog looking in tip top shape for the show ring or just wanting to keep your pet’s coat in healthy condition then Cherrybrook.com have the widest range at very reasonable prices for you!

De-matting Combs

These particular types of combs are a great tool for the matted dog.  They are designed for the specific purpose of catching and removing loose or matted hair, depending on the severity of the matting, of course.  There are a different styles of de-matting combs so you have a choice of what is most comfortable for you to use and what is going to be the most effective on your dog.  If you have a dog with a thick or double coat make sure you refer to our page on Grooming Rakes and Shedding Tools as these may be more effective.  De-matting combs break up any parts of fur which might have matted up or they are great for just thinning out the undercoat and excess hair.   Here are a couple you might want to check out!

Flea Combs
Another useful comb if your dog has fleas is a flea comb, like this JW Pet Company GripSoft Flea Comb from Amazon, and this can make de-fleaing your dog a lot easier, although they won’t eradicate the problem of flea breeding (refer to our page on Dog Fleas).  The teeth on a flea comb are very close together and as you comb through the coat the fleas get caught up and pulled to the surface of the dog. If your dog does have fleas then this tool can be used in conjunction with the application of a flea treatment as well as bathing your dog in a flea shampoo – see our section on Fleas.

There is such a wide range of inexpensive dog grooming combs for all types of coats available and it is just a matter of determining which one is most suitable for your requirements.
