ACTIVET BRUSH RECOMMENDATIONS BY BREED
Professional Groomers obviously deal with many coat types and will select their preferred brushes by FUNCTION (mat breaking, undercoating, finishing) along with the breed types they may specialise in.
Pet Owners on the other hand, will select the Activet brush most suited to their individual pet’s coat and grooming needs.
As the majority of breeds have multiple grooming needs, Activet DUO brushes are most popular with Pet Owners, effectively giving you 2 tools in the one brush.
PUPPIES
For puppies and young dogs of ALL BREEDS, choose either the DUO SilCoater or Coat Grabber GOLD brushes. These brushes are extremely gentle and forgiving on young pets, providing the greatest chance of a happy and positive introduction to grooming. |
