The level of difficulty in caring for a long-haired dog is beyond the reach of a short-haired dog. Love to shed hair, love to knot, love to mess with flowers.

So what tool is right for them?
Handle Comb
Suitable for the care of long, straight-haired dogs
Representative dog breeds: Golden Retriever, Shi Tzu, Afghani
Pros:
The needles on the air cushion are long enough to reach the roots of the hair.
The surface area is large enough to greatly improve the efficiency of combing
The round needles are not easy to damage the skin
Needle combs
Suitable for the care of long, curly dogs
Representative dog breeds: Poodle, Bichon
Advantages: It can quickly straighten the hair. Because the teeth of the needle comb are very sharp, you need to pay attention to the technique when using it, so as not to hurt the skin of the dog.
How to demonstrate:
Pay special attention when using a needle comb. Because the needle is relatively sharp, it is necessary to touch the dog's surface skin with the maximum surface when brushing. .
One hand holds the dog's coat and skin in place, while the other hand uses the strength of the wrist to comb in any direction.
Although the tip of the long-haired dog is combed smoothly, the root of the hair may be knotted, so every stroke needs to be combed from the very root of the hair.
The handle comb is basically the same as the needle comb.
