Ancol Ergo Shedding Blade - Dog Grooming Tool for Smooth, Short & Wiry Coats

A genuinely effective tool for stripping loose and dead hair from your dog's coat, particularly well suited to smooth, short and wiry coat types. Worth noting straightaway - this has shallow, spiked teeth and does not include a razor, so it's designed to pull away loose fur rather than cut hair.

The blade opens up for larger areas like along the back, or can be used closed for smaller dogs and more precise areas of the body, giving you flexibility depending on what you're working with.

Key Features and Benefits

• Strips Loose & Dead Hair: Ideal for smooth, short and wiry coats.
• Two Sizes of Teeth: Suited to different coat densities.
• Open or Closed Use: Flexible for larger areas or smaller, more precise sections.
• No Razor: Shallow, spiked teeth pull away hair rather than cutting it.

How to Use

Gently brush in the direction of fur growth, letting the teeth pull away loose hair. Use the blade closed for small dogs or smaller areas of the body, or opened up for larger areas such as along the back. Start gently, and only apply more pressure if your dog is relaxed and enjoying the session. Pause or stop if your dog becomes agitated at any point.

Grooming Tips

Grooming is a lovely way to bond with your dog, but dogs new to it should be introduced slowly. Begin sessions when your dog is relaxed, ideally after exercise, and use tools gently, avoiding any tugging on the skin, knots or mats. Offer plenty of reassurance throughout, keep early sessions brief, and gradually build up the length as your dog gets more comfortable. Always pause or end the session if your dog shows signs of stress.
