A small brush for dogs' and cats' coats. It is 12 cm long, 4 cm wide and weighs about 40 g. The handle is dark brown wood with a clearly visible grain, and it carries the P-AW paw logo. Pale bamboo pins with rounded tips fill the brush head. Made in China.
Bamboo pins on a flexible cushion
The pins stand out of a flexible cushion, so they give a little as you brush and follow the curve of your pet's body. Their rounded tips rub the skin gently rather than pricking it, so brushing doubles as a massage.
There is a small hole in the middle of the cushion that lets air in and out as the cushion presses in during brushing and springs back.
For small areas and for the travel bag
The small head reaches the legs, the chest and round the ears, where a big brush struggles to get in. It fits in a handbag or the car's glovebox, so you can take it on day trips and holidays.
It is about the length of a palm and sits comfortably even in a small hand.
A few minutes' brushing a day
If you brush your pet with it for a few minutes each day, some of the loose hair ends up on the brush instead of the sofa. Work slowly, in the direction of the coat. Pick the trapped hair out of the pins with your fingers and the brush is ready to use again.
Don't soak the wooden handle. If dust has stuck to the pins along with the hair, wipe them with a slightly damp cloth and let them dry.
According to its packaging it suits all coat types. On a long, tangled coat, use a slicker brush first and finish off with this one.
