What kind of brush should I use for my puppy?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Bristle brush: Bristle brushes have soft, straight bristles on a flat base. Because this design doesn't penetrate as deeply as others, it works best for dogs with short coats. Fine-tooth comb: Fine-tooth combs work best on short-haired dogs and those with thin undercoats.


What type of brush do I need for a puppy?

The best dog brush for short hair is any brush that stimulates the coat and skin and can also deal with any moulting hairs. A soft or rubbery brush is what I like to use as they massage the skin, make the coat look healthy and remove debris and loose hairs.

When should you start brushing your puppy's hair?

We recommend starting at 12-weeks of age. The very first grooming appointment is an introduction to the puppy and the owner to the world of grooming.

Can I use a regular brush on my puppy?

If you're doing general brushing choose a general-purpose brush like a comb, pin-head brush, or the Zoom Groom. If you're planning to remove your dog's dead coat or hair mats use a brush for this purpose, like a shedding blade or a universal slicker brush.
