What brush do dog groomers use

In the eyes of pet groomers, dogs are not just the objects of their work but also a group of lovely little angels. They heal everyone who meets them with their unconditional love. And the brush, as a powerful tool in the hands of groomers, is like a painter's brush or a craftsman's chisel, helping groomers create beautiful looks for dogs and starting a journey of beautiful transformation for them.

For dog groomers, choosing the right brush is the first step in providing high-quality care for dogs. There are a wide variety of dog breeds, and the texture, length, and density of the fur of different dogs vary greatly. This requires groomers to select a suitable brush according to the specific situation of the dog.

The boar bristle brush is a "star product" in the pet grooming industry. With its unique characteristics, it is suitable for various dog breeds with different fur qualities. The flat hard boar bristle brush has stiff bristles and is suitable for dog breeds with short and coarse hair, such as Labrador Retrievers, Jack Russell Terriers, Bulldogs, and Pugs. When groomers use it to comb the fur of these dogs, it can reach deep into the bottom of the fur, effectively removing dirt and dead hair. It can also promote blood circulation in the dog's skin, allowing the dog to enjoy a comfortable brushing time. The flat soft boar bristle brush is gentler and is specially designed for short-haired dog breeds with thin and soft fur, such as American Bullies, Short-haired Dachshunds, Doberman Pinschers, etc. When used, it will not cause harm to their fragile fur and skin. The curved air-cushioned hard boar bristle comb (full bristle) has a unique curved surface design that conforms to the dog's body curve. It is suitable for long-haired dog breeds with thin and smooth fur that are easy to comb through and curly-haired dog breeds, such as West Highland White Terriers, Yorkies, Silky Terriers, Bichon Frises, and Poodles. When combing the fur, it can make the fur smoother and reduce the trouble of tangling. The curved air-cushioned hard boar bristle comb (with nylon pins) adds nylon pins on the basis of the boar bristles, enhancing the combing strength. It is suitable for dog breeds with thick fur that are not easy to comb through, such as double-coated dog breeds and long-haired dog breeds with smooth fur, such as Golden Retrievers, Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, Samoyeds, and Akita Inus.

The pin brush is a widely used tool and is suitable for most dogs. When groomers comb the fur of dogs, the pin brush can effectively remove the shed hair, keeping the dog's fur clean and tidy. However, special attention should be paid to the hardness of the pins. Pins that are too hard are likely to cause harm to the dog's skin and bring pain to the dog. The de-matting pin brush is specially designed for long-haired dogs. For dogs like Old English Sheepdogs whose fur is long and prone to tangling, the de-matting pin brush can reach deep into the bottom of the fur and clean out the dead hair and tangled hair. When using it, groomers need to control the strength to avoid hurting the dog's skin.

The silicone bristle brush has a soft texture and causes minimal irritation to the dog's skin, making it especially suitable for young dogs and dogs with sensitive skin. While combing the fur, the silicone bristle brush can also play a role in massaging, promoting blood circulation in the dog's skin and enhancing the skin's resistance. The glove brush has fixed rubber protrusions and stiff short hairs. When using it, the groomer only needs to put it on their hand and stroke along the dog's fur to easily comb the fur. It is especially suitable for short-haired dogs. This intimate way of contact can also enhance the relationship between the groomer and the dog.

In daily work, electric pet grooming brushes are increasingly favored by groomers due to their convenience and efficiency. In 2024, the market size of electric pet grooming brushes in China reached 302 million yuan, and the global market size reached 916 million yuan. It is expected that by 2030, the global market size will reach 2.125 billion yuan. Electric grooming brushes can not only comb the fur quickly but also adjust the modes according to different needs, saving groomers a lot of time and energy.

The brushes in the hands of dog groomers are not just cold tools but also carry their deep love and care for dogs. Every combing is a spiritual communication with the dog; every look is a beautiful blessing for the dog. Under the gentle touch of the brush, dogs become healthier and more beautiful, and groomers also gain a great sense of accomplishment. And when the dogs, with a brand-new look, wag their tails and express their trust and love to the groomers, this two-way emotional connection becomes the warmest motivation for the groomers in their work, enabling them to keep going on the path of protecting the beauty and health of dogs.
