Four Paws Magic Coat Professional Self-Cleaning Slicker - Large

The Four Paws Magic Coat Professional Self-Cleaning Slicker is the large self-cleaning slicker from the Professional Series. The spring-loaded button on top retracts the pins and releases a session's worth of hair in one go.

Key Features

• Spring-loaded button that retracts the pins for cleaning
• Contoured head that conforms to the shape of the body
• Large head, so it covers a big dog in fewer strokes
• Ergonomic comfort-grip handle

Using A Slicker Without Scratching

• Keep the strokes light and let the tips do the work. Pressing a slicker into the skin causes the red graze groomers call slicker burn
• Hold the brush loosely and flick at the end of each stroke rather than dragging through
• Short-coated dogs rarely need a slicker at all. They are for coats with an undercoat or a woolly texture

Large Head, Same Rules

• A bigger head covers more ground, which makes it easy to use more pressure without noticing. Keep the touch light
• It is the wrong size for a cat or a toy breed. Use the small slicker or the cat brush for those

Making Grooming Easy

• Short, frequent sessions beat long ones. A minute a day with treats builds a pet that tolerates grooming for life
• Work in the direction the coat grows and stop before your pet has had enough. Ending on a good moment is what buys you the next session
• Clean the tool out as you go. A brush clogged with hair stops reaching the coat and starts dragging on it
