Full Service Dog Nail Groomer (Rotary) – For anybody who is familiar with Dremel tools, you’ll be aware that the nail care device is based on exactly the same concept. As opposed to using a nail clipper to snip each nail off, the rotary dog grooming tools rotates rapidly and helps you to sand your dogs nails down. This is a lot less traumatic to your dog, and prevents nails being cut at the quick, which may cause pain and bleeding .

Matting Comb – It’s a comb that is basically a series of needle-like spikes. This can be used on dogs that shed a lot, and if used with a rolling motion can pick up lots of hair. Be very careful with such tools, because the sharp points can injure and break the skin should they poke you.

Dog Slicker – It’s a dog brush that is especially designed to remove hair in the dog’s undercoat, whilst at the same time preserving the hair of the topcoat from being taken off. When dogs shed, it is the undercoat that should be groomed, and owners often use a regular comb which removes more of the topcoat than is needed and this is just not good for your pet.

Undercoat Rake – Like the slicker, this is a dog grooming tool that’s intended specifically to remove the shedding and loose hair on the dog’s undercoat. You will find different shapes and widths, based on the size of your pet.

Shedding Blade – It is a loop-style tool that features a dual function of helping remove shedding hair as well as also assisting in water removal after the dog has been washed. The smooth side can be used almost like a squeegee to slick off extra water from the coat.

Flea Comb – It is a very fine-toothed comb to be used in the removal of fleas. The fine tines around the comb help comb out the dog’s fur and make it simpler to get rid of fleas.

De-Shedding tool – This is a comb-style brush, with just one row of tines which is created specifically to remove shedding fur. With just one row of tines, it makes less complicated to remove fur without all of it getting caught in a comb, making it tougher to remove.
