[nagdu] grooming tools

[Raven Tolliver]

I have a golden so I find that the slicker brush is pretty mediocre
compared to other brushes out there. I use it in companion with
another brush. ... Gosh, I don't know the brand, but it's wooden with
hard bristles on one side and soft bristles on the other. I also use a
rake on the Golden guy, especially if he's blowing coat.
I brush him out once a day before we go out in the morning. I give him
a thorough brushing and combing 3 to 4 times a week.
Personally, I don't like the Furminator. I've never used it on my
golden, but when I groom other dogs at the shelter, it's a tool that's
available. It is not effective in removing and collecting large
amounts of hair, and it's especially horrible if a dog is blowing coat
or just shedding profusely. I'd rather use a human hair brush on a dog
than a Furminator.
