Rosewood Soft Protection Slicker Brush – Large

Rosewood Soft Protection Slicker Brush – Large

Fine angled wire pins set across a wide head. Rosewood’s claim for the slicker range is that it removes mats, tangles and loose hair, and reduces moulting with regular use — the reduction being in what ends up on the sofa rather than in what the dog sheds.

This is the large, code 07661; the range runs 07659, 07660 and 07661 from small through medium to large. The wide head is what you want on a big dog or a dense coat, where a small slicker turns a twenty-minute job into an hour.

Performance & Benefits

• Wide head covers a large dog in far fewer passes.
• Fine angled pins reach through the topcoat into the undercoat.
• Removes mats, tangles and loose hair, which is Rosewood’s stated purpose for the range.
• Regular use reduces the amount of shed coat left around the house.
• Ergonomic moulded hand grip for a long session.

Suitable For

• Larger dogs, and cats and dogs with dense or long coats.
• De-matting medium and long coats, the job Rosewood name for the slicker.
• Regular de-shedding through a moult.
• Owners grooming a big coat at home between appointments.
• Too broad for a toy breed or for close work on a face — the Rosewood Soft Protection Slicker Brush Small (07659) fits there.

How to Use

• Work in small sections, brushing in the direction the coat lies.
• Hold the brush lightly and let the pins do the work; pressing drags on the skin.
• Lift the pulled hair off the pins as they fill.
• Follow with a comb to confirm the section is genuinely clear.
• Wash the head occasionally in warm soapy water and let it dry fully.
