What kind of brush do you use?? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I really don't like the brush I use on Starsky. I don't think he likes it either. He hates to be brushed. I got a flier from Chris Christensen with all types of brushes in it and would like to order one. What kind do the groomers use? What's the best that won't pull hair?

I have always only used the buttercombs. Seems like I have one of almost every one they have. I have both length handles and several different spines. I haven't ever used a brush.

I use a pin brush on Twinkie, the kind without the balls on the ends. I've heard these are good to use on them. She doesn't seem to hate it or like it more than anything else I've used on her.

I hope the member that recommended this brush to me forgives me for not remembering who she is . . . .

I LOVE my Chris Christensen pin brush. The letter/numbers on the brush are G (gold) and 27. It is without the balls on the ends and is WONDERFUL!

It does not pull or break the hair when brushing.

I have always used a comb on Mason..

A human comb and always wet his hair a little first. This has been good for us. I also comb him out with conditioner in the bath which helps with combing later and any matts come out easier for me in the bath. Thats my trick!
