Description: Safari's Self-Cleaning Slicker Brush solves one of the most tedious parts of regular dog brushing: pulling accumulated hair out of the bristles by hand between strokes. A single button on the back of the brush retracts the stainless steel pins, releasing collected hair in one motion so the pad can simply be wiped clean and the brush is immediately ready to use again. The gentle stainless steel pins are designed to work through mats and tangles and lift loose hair from the coat without irritating the skin underneath, provided the brush is used correctly — in the direction of hair growth, with gentle strokes, working through small sectioned-off areas of the coat rather than dragging across large sections at once. It's built for both short and long-haired dogs, and sized in small, medium, and large options that roughly correspond to the dog's overall size and coat volume. With consistent use, Coastal Pet — the family-owned Ohio manufacturer behind the Safari brand — positions regular brushing as contributing to reduced overall shedding and a healthier coat, in addition to the more immediate benefit of preventing mats from tightening and becoming painful or requiring a shave-out. One practical note: the self-cleaning slicker mechanism works best on dry fur, so it's generally recommended for use outside the bath rather than mid-wash.
