Golden Retriever Brushes

[koifishcross]

I have a 5 month old golden retriever and I was just wondering what brushes you would recommend?

I'm currently looking into the following:

Slicker Brush: Chris Christensen - is Big G or Big K better for their type of fur?

Comb:

I'm open to any other suggestions as well, thank you!

@koifishcross The Chris Christensens are very large and go pretty far down. We use them primarily for super thickly coated dogs. Depending on how long/thick his coat is I might recommend one with shorter bristles. Here’s a copycat Christensen that one of my coworkers recently purchased that’s much cheaper https://www.amazon.com/Slicker-Brus...I6IjQuODUifQ==&sprefix=slicker+,aps,95&sr=8-8

The comb is a good choice, it’ll help you find knots and make sure everything is brushed out.

For the rake I like furminator products but I’ve never used that one before. I usually use a rake on super heavy shedders.

@koifishcross I would normally just use your basic slicker brush, as the CC bristles are very long. Suited for poodles etc with a lot of coat. Then a metal comb to make sure you've got out any tangles out, as well as clumbs of loose undercoat, and an undercoat rake. If you want to take out some of the weight from the coat, then I would recommend getting a mars coat king. They're fantastic tools for thinning out undercoat without breaking the top coat as I have found furminator brushes can do
