What can you recommend.....from what I hear we should not use combs for after bathing...or is it the opposite? I already have Chris's small size pin brush (which I love) now I need the comb.

Please recommend

thanks

Hi Tina,
I don't recommend brushing a dry coat at all, you can get tons of breakage. I always bathe, then brush, then comb. The reason I brush then comb is when you brush you get most of the snarles out but following up with a quick comb out will ensure you have gotten all of the "mini" snarles out that can lead to mats. Thats just how I do it though. Everyone does it differently, I don't think there is a wrong way to do it. If you are interested in a comb I would either recommend the 008 or the 011F. The 008 is great if you do top knots, it has the rat tail to help part the hair. But if your dog is trimmed I would probably recommend the 011F, it has a regular handle. Those are just my opinions. If I can be of anymore help just let me know!!!
