Dog brush

Dog brushes at a range of prices

Choose a dog brush first and foremost for your dog's coat: short, long or thick. The Petounet selection brings together 19 products: detangling brushes, self-cleaning brushes, combs, silicone accessories for the shower, gloves and a complete kit. Most of these brushes suit any furry pet in the home, dogs and cats included, small or large.

For long hair and undercoat

On a long or thick coat, the tool needs to reach deep down to remove dead hair and knots:

• the Double-Row Detangling Brush, with flexible stainless steel pins, for working out knots in all coat types;
• the Grooming Rake Brush, with a non-slip ergonomic handle;
• the white detangler with stainless blades, with a curved handle and push button;
• the ergonomic double-sided model, which removes dead hair without cutting the coat, sold singly or in a pack of 2.

To finish, the large metal comb for long hair, made of steel, goes back over the fine areas.

For short hair and everyday use

On short hair, or for a quick everyday brush, a gentler tool is enough:

• the Self-Cleaning Soft-Pin Brush, whose eject button empties the hair in seconds;
• the self-cleaning comb, with fine, rounded teeth that remove dead hair without catching the skin;
• the wooden model with fine pins, with soft metal pins, which is gentle on the skin according to its product page;
• the wooden comb, in three tooth spacings.

Massage, shower and cleaning

In the shower, a silicone massage brush works the shampoo into a lather: the massage brush with adjustable handle, soft and washable, or the one with a long handleThe silicone massage gloves do the same job by hand, for a pet that doesn't like classic brushes. The steam brush adds a spray for gentle cleaning.

For hair left on the sofa or in the car, the double-sided glove and extendable 2-in-1 roller clean fabrics.

Finally, the 6-in-1 kit brings together a brush, massage gloves and an absorbent towel.

Which brush should you choose for your dog?

• Short hair: the self-cleaning brush, a silicone glove or the wooden model.
• Long hair: the pin detangler, a kind of slicker brush, then the large metal comb.
• Shedding, thick coat: the rake or the bladed detangler.
• Puppy discovering brushing: a glove or a soft model, for a calm first experience.
• Several pets at home: most of the products on this page also work for cats.

How do you brush your dog?

Work in the direction of the hair, in small sections, from the back towards the legs and belly. On a long coat, work out the knots first, then use the comb. How often depends on the coat length and the season: shedding calls for more sessions. Empty the tool after each use: clean brushes stay more effective. Gentle brushing leaves a shinier coat and soon becomes an enjoyable moment for your pet.
