Brush Guide: Specialty Brushes

In the third and last part of the brush guide, we will be breaking down the specialty brushes and explain what they are do, and which breeds they are suited for.

ANDREAS SERIES

The Andreas Series is a Nylon/Boar bristle brush that comes in two sizes: medium and small. Originally when this line was released, there were three sizes, also a large. We retired the large brush as there wasn’t much need for a brush of that size. The Andreas Series brushes are great for drop coats, as the Nylon stimulates the oil glands, prompting the creation of more oil, while the boar bristles distribute the oil throughout the coat. This increases shine, and is excellent for finishing.

Breed Examples: Maltese, Afghan Hound, Yorkshire Terrier, Cocker Spaniel

  • LIGHTWEIGHT BLACK BEECHWOOD HANDLE
  • OVAL SHAPE FOR MAXIMUM COVERAGE
  • PERFECT FINISHING BRUSH
  • MEDIUM & SMALL AVAILABLE

BOAR BRISTLE SERIES

Like the Andreas Series, our Boar Bristle brushes add a gorgeous natural shine thanks to the oils already present in the coat. These brushes are ideal for Smooth Coats as maintenance and finishing brushes. They also work great on wire and other coat types as chalk brushes.

  • SEAMLESSLY BLEND CHALKS
  • CREATES A NATURAL SHINE
  • SMOOTH FLY-A-WAYS
  • LIGHT BEECHWOOD HANDLE

IONIC SERIES

The Ionic Series is jokingly, but accurately, called our “Vacuum Brushes”. The Ionic charge present in the brass bristles suck dirt, dander, and other debris from the coat, while the boar bristles add a gorgeous shine. Created with terrier coats in mind, the Ionic Series is a great tool for wire, smooth and any coat with short hair.

Breed Examples: Boston Terrier, Boxer, Airedale Terrier

  • FINISHING BRUSH FOR ALL COAT TYPES
  • 100% STATIC FREE
  • GORGEOUS SHINE
  • LIGHTWEIGHT BEECHWOOD HANDLES

T-RAKES

Our T-Rakes are a combination of our 011 Staggered Tooth Comb, and our signature ergonomic handle. These rakes are truly unique as their weight allows virtually zero effort in removing knots, tangles and even loose coat. You simply let the tool do the work for you, without pulling coat!

SPECIALTY BRUSHES

We have a number of specialty brushes designed to fix specific problems for a variety of breeds. They are referred to as “specialty” because they are unique and one of a kind.

APPLICATOR BRUSH

The Applicator Brush is a dual headed brush designed for precise chalk application. This unique tool is perfect for mixing, blending and applying chalks.

  • PRECISE CHALK APPLICATION

ICE SLIP BRUSH

The Ice Slip Brush was designed to work with our Ice on Ice system to eliminate mats, tangles and knots. Like all our other pin brushes, the Ice Slip Brush has rounded and grounded pins, to ensure comfort for your dog or cat, and has thicker pins that glide through the coat, and eliminate knots. The Ice Slip Brush works great when paired with Ice on Ice Ready to Use or Ice on Ice Ultra.
