[nagdu] Grooming

[Tracy Carcione]

What is the furminator?  I've probably seen it, but don't know it by name.

I think TSE gave me a wire slicker brush, too.  It's softer than some, but
still much too much for short lab coats.  I tried using it real gently,
but I didn't like it and went back to my soft terrier brush.
