Knowledge about pet grooming tools is essential for you even if you are not a professional pet groomer but you just have a cute little pooch at home. Your pet’s well being lies in your hands. Pet grooming is essential for all kinds of pet. Cat grooming tools are a bit different from dog grooming tools according to the grooming needs of a cat. Cats too require grooming tools for nail care, hair care, and skin care. If you are a new pet owner and not familiar with pet grooming tools then it will be useful for you to get advice from your vet, a professional pet groomer, or do-it-yourself guides. You can also do an online research to get some idea about pet grooming and the tools used.
Here’s a brief description of some essential pet grooming tools –
Brushes: They are usually of three types – slicker, wire-pin and bristle. Slicker brushes are made up of fine wire bristles and are useful for brushing dogs with a dense undercoat. These are not suitable for smooth coated breeds. Bristle brushes can be used in a number of ways. Wire pin brushes with or without rubber tips are very effective on pets with wooly coats.
Combs: The size and structure of combs vary according to the purpose for which they are used. Pets with soft and silky coats require fine-toothed combs. Medium tooth combs are used generally for all purposes. De-matting can be done by wide-toothed combs. They are best for heavy coats. Rubber combs are used for massaging the skin. Dead hair can be removed from short coated breeds by using rubber combs.
Clippers & Blades: There are a number of clippers available in the market and every pet groomer has his/ her own favorite brand. Some clippers come with snap-on blades. The blades of other clippers have to be changed using blade changing tools. Snap-on combs could also be used for long and medium coated pets.
Dryers: Dryers can be of various types such as cage dryers, stand dryers free-standing and multiple nozzle dryers.
Scissors & Shears: Scissors are very essential pet grooming tools for hairstyling of pets. You need to choose a shear that suits your needs. The options are curved shears, straight shears, thinning shears, blunt-tipped shears, etc.
Nail Clippers: A wide variety of nail clippers are available in the market which are suitable for small, medium or large dogs.
Grooming Tables: You have the option to select hydraulic, stationary or electrical grooming tables. For a hydraulic table you have to use a pump to raise or lower it. In case of an electronic grooming table, a built-in motor is used to raise or lower the table.
De-Matting Tools: These tools are of help when brushes and combs render useless in de-matting. Matt splitters break the matt into tiny segments which can then be brushed or combed out.
