A great way to bond with your dog
The Ergo Shedding Blade is great for stripping loose and dead hair from your dog's coat. It has two sizes of teeth and can be used open or closed.
Instructions:
The blade has shallow, spiked teeth but does not include a razor. To use the blade, gently brush the hair in the direction of the fur growth. The teeth of the blade pull away loose hairs. The blade can be opened up by pulling both sides of the handle in opposing directions. Use when closed for small dogs or smaller areas on the dog's body, or opened up to remove loose hairs from larger areas such as down the dog's back. To ensure your dog has an enjoyable grooming session, start gently. If you dog enjoys grooming, more pressure can be applied to remove more fur. Pause or end the grooming session if your dog becomes agitated.
Grooming tips:
Grooming is a wonderful way to bond with your dog, but dogs that are new to grooming should be introduced to it slowly. Begin grooming sessions when your dog is relaxed, if possible, after they have exercised. Use tools gently and avoid tugging on the skin or on knots or mats. Give your dog plenty of reassurance throughout the grooming session. Pause or end the grooming session if your dog becomes agitated or shows signs of stress. Keep grooming sessions brief to begin with, and increase the length of the sessions as your dog becomes used to grooming.
