| Brush and comb help Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone can post a name or pic of the type of brush or comb that they use on their baby. I brush Duke daily with this brush here: PetEdge: Master Grooming Tools Bristle Brushes for Small Dogs but when I got him from the groomer yesterday, she said that I should use a comb/brush that can get closer to the skin. I really don't know what's good to get or use. Any advice or suggestion would help. thanks,

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I use a pin brush, but found the cheap pin brushes scratch the skin. You should be able to stoke your arm and not have any scratches. A good pin brush has finely polished tips that are smooth. Many people recommend the Chris Christensen pin brush, but they are very costly, and one member who has both the CC brush and the less expensive Madden brush preferred the Madden so I choose that, and I'm very happy with it. Madden Brushes for Dogs I use a steal comb, and finish his brushing with the comb next to his skin.

| Thanks, I'm just always concern that the pin brushes would be too sharp or hurt his skin. I'm going to look into that.
