Its dual-action head combines soft, ball-ended pins — which reach down through the coat to lift loose hair and ease out tangles — with shorter bristles that smooth the topcoat for a neat finish. The ergonomic handle is comfortable to hold, and it suits all coat types, from smooth and silky to long and curly. Choose Small for puppies, small breeds and tricky areas, or Large for medium and larger dogs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual-action head\u003c\/strong\u003e — ball-ended pins for the undercoat, bristles to smooth the top.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoft ball-ended pins\u003c\/strong\u003e — gentle detangling that's kinder on the skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelps with moulting\u003c\/strong\u003e — lifts out loose and dead hair, so there's less of it around the home.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll coat types\u003c\/strong\u003e — smooth, silky, short, long and curly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eErgonomic handle\u003c\/strong\u003e — a comfortable, secure grip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — Small (pad 6.5 × 4.5cm) and Large (pad 9.5 × 7cm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrush gently in the direction the coat grows, working in small sections.
