Slicker Brush, medium
A slicker brush for everyday use on any coat that tangles.

oneisall
Quiet cordless dog clippers that cope with a thick or matted coat. Best for regular at-home coat care and reducing shedding and tangles.
Why we picked it
A calm dog makes home grooming easy, and oneisall keep these under 55db in use. Stainless steel blades and a 6800 rpm motor move through thick coats without pulling. The battery runs for 240 minutes on a two hour USB charge, and the body is IPX7 waterproof, so the whole thing rinses clean.

For grooming, coat type, shedding level and grooming frequency matter, not breed as such. Double-coated heavy shedders suit a de-shedding tool. Curly or wavy coats suit a slicker and detangling comb, and smooth coats need little more than a rubber glove.
Quiet cordless dog clippers that cope with a thick or matted coat.
Routine brushing, de-shedding or de-tangling at home.
One size suits most, so pick the tool to the coat rather than the dog's dimensions.
Dog size: Works across sizes. The coat type matters more than the dog's size.
Life stage: Puppy, adult and senior. Introduce grooming gently and keep sessions short for young or nervous dogs.
Check for stainless pins or blades and a comfortable grip. Quality tools last for years.
Clean hair from the tool after each session and store it dry.
This is a premium grooming tool. A premium pick, and the features earn it.
Match the tool to the coat: de-shedders for double coats, slickers and combs for curly or long coats, gloves for smooth coats.
Introduce any grooming tool slowly with treats. For very anxious dogs a soft grooming glove is the gentlest starting point.
Little and often works best. A few minutes several times a week keeps coats tidy and shedding down.
