Favorite Brush? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

zoeybear · 07-20-2007, 04:06 PM

Does anyone have a favorite brush you use on your baby? I am using a human brush. It is 100% boar hair and pretty soft. Zoey is like trying to brush a tazmanian devil! She hates it! I believe she has a silky coat. It never gets knotted. Any favorite brands or types?

I would like to know about some good brushes too! Anyone else have a favorite?

My favorite brush to use on Roxie is the Chris Christensen Fusion Pin Brush and the Buttercomb. The brush and comb were a little pricey but worth every penny. When I first got Roxie she hated to be bushed. Only to find out the reason was because the brush that I was using was not a good quality brush. So I googled brushes and was lead to a thread on YT about Chris Christensen brushes. The rest is history and I have been on here ever since!

I just use one froms petsmart. But this little girl that I am getting, her hair is different than Aubrey's so I need to find a softer brush.

Honestly I just use a really wide toothed comb, and neither one of them mind it. When I try to use a brush on Penny she tries to eat it.

I tried so many different brushes and the Chris Christensen is the best on Lucy by far. She actually lets me brush her with it!

k - I have no idea how to cut and paste a thread on this site but it's under Chris Christensen Brush in Grooming and for new posts. Sorry - I'm sometimes PC challenged.

This was a great thread on brushes and selecting quality ones.

I think this is it!

I use the CC Pin Fusion brush and the Buttercomb (#006). Both work great and Kingston thinks he's getting a massage.

AT the dog show this past week-end I talked to a lady who was showing a little Ch. Yorkie about shampoos, conditioners, food, brushes and all and found she uses the Chris Christensen pin brush, so I ordered the oval HBCC35 for $21.00. She uses the slicker to get the knots out. She first put the cowboy magic detangler shine on the knot, then with a knitting needle she seperates the knot and then brushes it out with a small soft slicker brush.

I switched sometime ago to a comb. A brush just does not do it.
Buddy is very silky and seldom knots. So a comb makes better sence
for me. The comb, with long prongs, goes right throw his coat and
leaves him flowing.

Saleswman · 12-26-2007, 09:11 PM

I searched for the C gold and fusion brush......there are like 3 choices. Also, the combs are the same way. Do I want the fine comb or what....???? And the oval brush, long brush or the toy brush....it ranges from 19 to 49 dollars.....

Just wonder which ones to order???????

I LOVE the CC Brushes.

They are a bit pricey. I ended up buying the first one from a vendor at a dog show...I don't regret the purchase at all and I loved that I could pick up each brush and hold it before buying. Just to make sure it "fit".

That is like in our house. Ever since I've got CC Fusion brush Tom thinks it's a spa day when I brush him.

I also comb him after brushing. Brush gets almost all tangles and mats out (and he gets badly matted if I put clothes on him). I've developed some kind of brushing technique how to do it. I also use Cowboy Magic.
